The control electronics performs the following major functions: · Controls and interprets all interface signals between the host controller and the drive. · Controls read write accessing of the disk media, including defect management and error recovery. · Controls starting, stopping, and monitoring of the spindle. · Conducts a power-up sequence and calibrates the servo. · Analyzes servo signals to provide closed loop control. These include position error signal and estimated velocity. · Monitors the actuator position and determines the target track for a seek operation. · Controls the voice coil motor driver to align the actuator in a desired position. · Constantly monitors error conditions of the servo and takes corresponding action if an error occurs. · Monitors various timers such as head settle and servo failure. · Performs self-checkout (diagnostics). 3.2 Head Disk Assembly The head/disk assembly (HDA) is assembled in a clean room environment and contains disks, a spindle motor, actuator assembly, and voice coil motor. Air is constantly circulated and filtered when the drive is operational. Venting of the HDA is accomplished via a breather filter. The spindle is driven directly by a brushless, sensorless DC drive motor. Dynamic braking is used to stop the spindle quickly. 3.3 Actuator The read/write heads are mounted in the actuator. The actuator is a swing-arm assembly driven by a voice coil motor. A closed-loop positioning servo controls the movement of the actuator. An embedded servo pattern supplies feedback to the positioning servo to keep the read/write heads centered over the desired track. The actuator assembly is balanced to allow vertical or horizontal mounting without adjustment. When the drive is powered off, the actuator automatically moves the head to the actuator ramp outside of the disk where it parks.

HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 8 4.4.1 Data cylinder This cylinder contains the user data which can be sent and retrieved via read/write commands and a spare area for reassigned data. 4.4.2 Spare cylinder The spare cylinder is used by HGST, a Western Digital Company manufacturing and includes data sent from a defect location 4.5 Performance characteristics Drive performance is characterized by the following parameters: ·Command overhead ·Mechanical head positioning - Seek time - Latency ·Data transfer speed ·Buffering operation (read ahead/write cache) Note: All the above parameters contribute to drive performance. There are other parameters that contribute to the performance of the actual system. This specification tries to define the bare drive characteristics, not system throughput, which depends on the system and the application. 4.5.1 Mechanical positioning 4.5.1.1 Average seek time (including settling) Table 6: Mechanical positioning performance Command Type Typical (ms) Max (ms) Read 7.6 7.9 Write 8.0 8.3 The terms "Typical" and "Max" are used throughout this specification with the following meanings: Typical. The average of the drive population tested at nominal environmental and voltage conditions. Max. The maximum value measured on any one drive over the full range of the environmental and voltage conditions. (See Section 6.2, "Environment" and Section 6.3, "DC Power Requirements") HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 9 4.5.1.2 Full stroke seek time Table 7: Full stroke seek time Function Typical (ms) Read 14.5 Write 15.0 MAx (ms) 15.5 16.0 4.5.1.3 Average latency Table 8: Latency time Rotation 7200 RPM Time for a revolution (ms) 8.33 Average latency (ms) 4.16 4.5.2 Drive ready time Table 9: Drive ready time Model Typical (sec) 5 Disk Model < 20.0 Maximum (sec) < 30.0 Ready Power on The condition in which the drive is able to perform a media access command (such as read, write) immediately.

Commands can be received and processed immediately Actuator is unloaded and spindle motor is stopped. Commands can be received immediately Actuator is unloaded and spindle motor is stopped. Only soft reset or hard reset can change the mode to standby Note: Upon power down or spindle stop a head locking mechanism will secure the heads in the OD parking position. 4.5.3.2 Mode Transition times Table 10: Mode transition times From To Standby Idle Standby Sleep Unload idle Idle Low RPM Idle Idle Standby Sleep Standby Idle Unload idle Idle RPM Typical Transition time(sec) 0 -> 7200 7200 -> 0 0 0 7,200 7,200 4500 -> 7200 15 Immediately Immediately Immediately 1 0.7 7 Max Transition time(sec) 30 Immediately Immediately Immediately 30 30 30 Note: The command is processed immediately but there will be an actual spin down time reflecting the seconds passed until the spindle motor stops HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 11 4.5.4 Data transfer speed: Table 11: Data transfer speed (sector size 512 Byte case) Description Disk-buffer transfer Instantaneous Measured typical values for sustained disk-buffer transfer rate Zone 0 0 Product MKS Typical (MB/Sec) Read Write 179 179 MKS 164 164 Instantaneous 29 MKS 91 91 Measured typical values for sustained disk-buffer transfer rate 29 MKS 83 83 Notes: · Instantaneous disk-buffer transfer rate is derived by: (Number of sectors on a track) x 512 x (revolutions/sec) · For this table, '1 MB / Sec' should be interpreted as 1,000,000 bytes per Second. · The number of sectors per track varies in each zone (radius) as a result of constant linear density recording. · Sustained disk-buffer transfer rate is the average rate measured while transferring multiple cylinders of data. It differs from the instantaneous transfer rate because of the time required to change tracks (Track skew and Head skew). In addition, time is added for the occasional missed track switch. 4.5.5 Buffering operation (read ahead/write cache) This hard disk drive has a buffer for read ahead see 20.8, "Segmented Caching" on page 285. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 12 5.0 Data Integrity The drive retains recorded information under all non-write operations. No more than one sector can be lost by power down during a write operation while write cache is disabled. If power down occurs before completion of a data transfer from write cache to disk while write cache is enabled, the data remaining in the write cache will be lost. To prevent this data loss at power off, the following action is recommended: · Confirm successful completion of a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE (35h) command 5.1 Equipment Status Equipment status is available to the host system any time the drive is not ready to READ, WRITE or SEEK. This status normally exists at power-on time and will be maintained until the following conditions are satisfied: · Access recalibration/tuning is complete · Spindle speed meets requirements for reliable operations · Self-check of drive is complete Appropriate error status is made available to the host system if any of the following conditions occur after the drive has become ready: · Spindle speed goes outside of requirements for reliable operation · "Write fault" is detected 5.2 Error Recovery Procedure Errors occurring with the drive are handled by the error recovery procedure. Errors that are uncorrectable after application of the error recovery procedures are reported to the host system as non-recoverable errors. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 13 HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 14 6.0 Physical Format Media defects are remapped to the next available sector during the Format Process in manufacturing. The mapping from Logical Block Address (LBA) to the physical Block locations is calculated using internally maintained tables. 6.1 Shipped Format (P-List) · Data areas are optimally used. · All pushes generated by defects are absorbed by available tracks of the inner notch. P-List Physical Format Note: Defects are skipped without any constraint, such as track or cylinder boundary. The calculation from LBA to physical is done automatically by internal table. 6.2 Reassigned Format (G-List) · G-List has a capacity of 22,000 Customer LBAs · Multiple reassignments of the same Customer LBA increase the number of G-List entries. · A track for spare sectors is inserted after every 800 nominal customer tracks. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 15 HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 16 7.0 Electrical Interface 7.1 SAS Connector The drive uses the standard 29 pin Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) connector which conforms to the mechanical requirements of SFF 8482. The connector is expected to be used in an environment which uses a common connector structure for racking disk drives in a cabinet. The connector allows for plugging a drive directly into a backplane by providing the necessary electrical connection. Mechanical stability and device retention must be provided by a mechanism outside the drive. 7.1.1 29 pin Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) Connector Definition Diagram of top and bottom of connector showing pinouts.

Care must be taken to avoid using any compound/material in a way that creates an elevated level of corrosive materials in the atmosphere surrounding the disk drive. Care must also be taken to avoid use of any organometallic (e.g. organosilicon or organotin) compound/material in a way that creates elevated vapor levels of these compounds/materials in the atmosphere surrounding the disk drive. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 19 8.2 Storage requirements 8.2.1 Packaging The drive or option kit must be heat-sealed in a moisture barrier bag with desiccant inside the bag supplied by HGST, a Western Digital Company. 8.2.2 Storage time Cumulative storage time in the package must not exceed one year. If a longer storage time is required, the drive must be repackaged with new desiccant or moved to a climatically controlled environment. After the drive is unpackaged, it must not remain inoperative for longer than six months. 8.3 Corrosion test The hard disk drive shows no signs of corrosion inside or outside of the hard disk assembly and remains functional after being exposed to a temperature of 50ºC and relative humidity of 90% for seven days HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 20 8.4 Cooling requirements Drive component surface temperatures must remain within the limits specified in the following table. The drive may require forced air cooling to meet specified operating temperatures. Table 14: Maximum allowable surface temperatures Module name HDD base casting Location Maximum allowable surface temperature as noted in picture 60ºC HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 21 HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 22 9.0 DC Power Requirements The following voltage specification applies at the drive power connector. Connections to the drive should be made in a safety extra low voltage (SELV) circuit. There is no power on or power off sequencing requirement. Adequate secondary over-current protection is the responsibility of the system. Table 15: Input Voltage and capacitance Tolerance Absolute Max Spike Voltage Supply Rise Time Capacitance +5 Volts Supply +/- 5% 5.5 V 0-200 ms 53 uF +12 Volts Supply +/- 5% 15 V 0-400 ms 26 uF Note: -8% is acceptable during spin up, but the spin up time is not guaranteed. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 23 9.1 Power Supply Current, Average and Peak The following current and power requirements are typical when operating under the following conditions: Nominal 5 and 12V, Background Media Scan (BMS) disabled for Idle, Write Caching disabled and the drive reporting a temperature of 40C. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 24 9.2 Ripple Voltage Table 16: Power Supply Generated Ripple at Drive Power Connector +5 V DC +12 V DC Maximum (mV pp) 250 250 MHz 0-10 0-10 During drive start up and seek, 12 volt ripple is generated by the drive (referred to as dynamic loading). If the power of several drives is daisy chained, the power supply ripple plus other drive dynamic loading must remain within the regulation tolerance of +5%. A common supply with separate power leads to each drive is a more desirable method of power distribution. To prevent external electrical noise from interfering with the drive's performance, the drive must be held by four screws in a user system frame that has no electrical level difference at the four screw positions. The drive enclosure must not be used in the current return path of the drive power supply. The maximum common-mode noise current passing through the drive must not exceed 20 mA.

The drive is designed to withstand a minimum of 10,000 start/stop cycles at the operating environment conditions specified in Chapter 8.0, "Environment" on page 19. 10.2 Load/Unload Cycles The drive is designed to withstand a minimum of 600,000 load/unload cycles at the operating environmental conditions specified in Chapter 8.0, "Environment" on page 19 10.3 Data Reliability The probability of an uncorrectable data error is 1 in 1015 bits read. ECC implementation: · 1 symbol = 10 bits · 1 interleaves · 16 symbols, On-The-Fly correction · Up to 30 symbols (total) Off-Line correction with burst error information · LBA seeded 32 bit CRC for ECC miscorrect detection 10.4 Seek errors A non-recoverable seek/ID miscompare error is defined as a seek operation that cannot be recovered by the error recovery procedure of the drive. The drive reports sense key 04 and sense code 02 for this error. No drive has more than one non-recoverable seek/ID miscompare error per 100 million seek operations (1 in 1x 108) when operated at the full range of voltage and environmental conditions. 10.5 Failure prediction (S.M.A.R.T) A recoverable equipment error is an error other than a seek/ID miscompare error or read error that is detected and corrected by the drive error recovery procedure. Examples are Write Fault, Drive Not Ready and internal drive errors. SMART Monitoring Parameters are checked to determine if the (Read/Write/Seek) error rates exceed the drive's threshold value when an error occurs and a minimum amount of operation has been completed. A check is also performed for a minimum level of Spare Sector Availability. The Head Load / Unload Count, Spin Up Time and Spin Up Retry Count parameters are checked prior to reporting a "Ready" condition at Power On. Non-recoverable equipment errors indicate a defective drive. 10.6 MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure): 2.0 M hours. This MTBF target is based on a sample population and is estimated by statistical measurements and acceleration algorithms under nominal operating conditions. MTBF ratings are not intended to predict an individual drive's reliability. MTBF does not constitute a warranty.

SAS is logically a bi-directional, point to point serial data channel that leverages the Scsi protocol set. Nodes are physically connected via a Port. Ports may be connected point-to-point via SAS expanders, to form a complex switching network, referred to as a SAS domain. SAS is defined in terms of a hierarchy of functions or 'protocol layers'. This discussion will focus in on the aspects of SAS that are relevant to this product. · SCSI Application Layer - Clause 10 · SSP Transport Layer (Serial SCSI Protocol) - Clause 9 · SAS Port Layer - Clause 8 · SSP Link Layer - Clause 7 · SAS PHY Layer - Clause 6 · SAS Physical Layer - Clause 5 All layers are defined in the following ANSI standard. · "Serial Attached SCSI - 2 (SAS-2)" In addition, this drive claims compliance with the following ANSI standards. · SCSI Architecture Model (SAM-3) · SCSI Block Commands (SBC2) 17.2 SAS Features The following SAS features are supported by the Drive. · SAS Compliance - "Serial Attached SCSI - 2 (SAS-2)" · SAS Protocol - This drive supports Serial Scsi Protocol (SSP). - STP (Tunneled SATA) and SMP (Management protocol) protocols are NOT supported. · SAS Dual Ported Operation - single PHY ports (i.e. Narrow port.

Port identifiers are the values by which ports are identified within a domain, and are used as SAS addresses. Phy identifiers are unique within a device. Table 25: Names and identifiers Object Port Identifier Port Name Device Name Phy Identifier SAS Implementation SAS address Not defined SAS address Phy identifier Where the SAS Address format is defined by ANSI as follows: Byte/Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 NAA (5h) (MSB) 1 IEEE Company ID 2 3 (LSB) (MSB) 4 5 6 Vendor Specific Identifier 7 (LSB) HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 48 The SAS Device Name is a unique SAS address world wide name. This device name is reported through the SCSI Vital Products Data. Each of the two SAS ports also has a unique SAS address world wide name. These port identifiers are reported in the IDENTIFY Address frame and are used as source and destination addresses in the OPEN address frame. They are also reported through the SCSI Vital Products Data. Since this drive is one device with two ports it has three SAS addresses. All SAS Addresses are in 64-bit IEEE Registered Name format, as illustrated in Table 26. Table 26: IEEE Registered Name format Bit 63-60 0101 59-36 OUI in Canonical Form 35-24 Block Assignment 23-2 1-0 S/N Object The Name Address Authority field (5h) specifies the format used for the rest of the name as follows: Field OUI Block Assignment Object S/N Description Organizationally Unique Identifier (24 bits).

Block assignment within HGST, a Western Digital Company Device Name/Port Identifier 00b Logical Unit Name 01b Port 1 10b Port 2 11b Target Device Name Sequentially increasing drive serial number assigned at manufacturing. 17.4 Spin up The drive supports the Active Wait, Active, and Stopped states specified by the SAS standard. After power on, the drive enters the Active Wait state. The Drive will not spin up it's spindle motor after power on until it receives a NOTIFY (Enable Spinup) primitive on either port to enter the Active state. If a NOTIFY (Enable Spinup) primitive is received prior to receiving a StartStop Unit command with the Start bit set to one, spin up will begin immediately. For SAS, this is analogous to auto-spinup function in legacy SCSI. This provision allows the system to control the power spikes typically incurred with multiple drives powering on (and spinning up) simultaneously. If a StartStop command with the Start bit set to one is received prior to receiving a NOTIFY (Enable Spinup), the Drive will not start it's spindle motor until Notify (Enable Spinup) is received on either port. Successful receipt of a NOTIFY (Enable Spinup) is a prerequisite to spin up. If the StartStop Unit command with the Start bit set, also has the immediate bit set, status will be returned prior to actually spinning up the motor, but the actual act of spinning up the motor is deferred until receipt of the NOTIFY (Enable Spinup) primitive. If a media access command is received after sending immediate Status and prior to receiving a NOTIFY (Enable Spinup), the Drive will terminate the command with CHECK CONDITION status with a sense key of NOT READY and an additional sense code of LUN NOT READY, NOTIFY (ENABLE SPINUP) REQUIRED. If a media access command is received after receiving the NOTIFY (Enable Spinup) primitive and before the drive is finished spinning up, the Drive will terminate the command with CHECK CONDITION status with a sense key of LUN NOT READY and an addition sense code of HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 49 LUN IS IN THE PROCESS of BECOMING READY. N O T IFY (ENABLE SPINUP ) A c tiv e STO P UNIT Power On Active Wait STA R T U N IT S TOP U N IT Stopped 17.5 PHY Layer The Phy layer defines 8b10b coding and OOB signals. The Phy layer is the interface between the link layer and the physical layer. This section describes Phy Layer behaviors of the Drive. For a complete description of SAS Phy Layer, please see the ANSI specification, SAS 1.1. 17.5.1 Link Reset Sequence The Link Reset Sequences for SAS are defined in the SAS 2 ANSI specification and shown below. As show in the diagram, a Phy Reset sequence, consists of an OOB sequence, followed by speed negotiations. Link Reset Sequences will always include a PHY Reset Sequence, followed by an Identification Sequence. Inclusion of a Hard reset sequence is optional. If Hard Reset is performed, it will be preceded by a Phy Reset sequence, and will be followed by Phy Reset/Identification sequences. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 50 SAS Time Phy Reset sequence Link Reset sequence OOB sequence Speed Negotiation sequence Identification sequence SAS w/Hard Reset Time Phy Reset sequence Link Reset Sequence with hard Reset Hard Reset Sequence Phy Reset sequence Identification sequence 17.5.2 Hard Reset A Hard Reset sequence on a port will not affect the other port, but the outstanding commands on the other port will be aborted due to the LUN reset associated with the Hard Reset. The effect of a Hard Reset will be similar to a Power on Reset, and will result in the re-initialization of all Drive resources. The first command issued from every initiator on the port that received the Hard Reset will result in a CHECK CONDITION with a sense key of UNIT ATTENTION and an additional sense code of SCSI BUS RESET OCCURRED. The first command issued from every initiator on the other port will result in a CHECK CONDITION and an additional sense code of BUS DEVICE RESET OCCURRED. A Hard Reset Sequence will never be issued by the Drive. A link reset will be initiated by the drive on the affected port upon completion of Hard Reset processing. 17.5.3 SAS OOB (Out of Band) Out of band (OOB) signals are low-speed signal patterns detected by the Phy that do not appear in normal data streams. They consist of defined amounts of idle time followed by defined amounts of burst time. During the idle time, D.C. idle is transmitted. During the burst time, ALIGN (0) primitives are transmitted repeatedly. The signals are differentiated by the length of idle time between the burst times. As a SAS compliant device, the Drive uses three OOB signals: COMINIT/COMRESET and COMWAKE and COMSAS.OOB operations are beyond the scope of this specification. Please refer to the ANSI SAS 2 specification for more details. The drive will initiate OOB by sending COMINITs, under the following conditions: · POR · loss of sync · Identify timeout HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 51 17.5.4 SAS Speed Negotiation The Drive supports G1 (1.5 Gbps), G2 (3.0 Gbps), and G3 (6.0 Gbps) negotiation speeds. The default maximum negotiation rate is G3 speed (per byte 32 in the Phy Control and Discover Mode Page 19 subpage 1). Drive is SAS2 device and supports SNW-1, SNW-2, and SNW-3 speed negotiation with Phy capabilities exchange, and training (Train-SNW). Phy capabilities is defined in table below: Phy Capabilities: Byte /Bit 0 7 Start =1b 6 TX SSC Type = 0b 5 4 Reserved 3 2 1 0 Requested Logical Link Rate = 0h 1 G1 Without G1 With G2 Without G2 With G3 Without G3 With SSC=1b SSC=0b SSC=1b SSC=0b SSC=1b SSC=0b Reserved 2 Reserved 3 Reserved Parity · Start bit is 1 to indicate the beginning of the Phy capabilities · TX SSC Type bit is set to 0 to indicate that Phy's transmitter uses down spreading SCC when is enabled (e.g. the phy is a SAS phy). · Request Logical Link Rate field is 0 to indicate that drive does not support multiplexing · G1 Without SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G1(1.5 Gbps) without SSC · G2 Without SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G2(3.0 Gbps) without SSC · G3 Without SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G3(6.0 Gbps) without SSC · G1 With SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G1(1.5 Gbps) with SSC · G2 With SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G2(3.0 Gbps) with SSC · G3 With SSC bit set to 1 indicates that drive supports G3(6.0 Gbps) with SSC · Parity bit is set to 1 for even parity of the total number of SNW-3 phy capabilities, including Start bit. Training is based on the highest untried commonly supported settings on the exchanged SNW-3 supported settings bits. If a Train-SNW is invalid and there are additional, untried, commonly supported settings exchanged during SNW-3, then a new Train-SNW will be performed based on the next highest untried, commonly supported settings. Table 27 defines the priority of the supported settings bits. Table 27: Supported Settings Bit Priorities Priority Highest ... ... ... ...

Error Link Reset COMINIT Timeout COMSAS Timeout Speed Negotiation Errors Loss of Sync Disparity/Invalid DWORD Error Error Handling Procedure After POR or Hard Reset, the drive initiates link reset by transmitting exactly 1 COMINIT. For other resets, the drive does not initiate Link Reset. If COMINIT or COMSAS is not received before the "Hot Plug Timeout" period expires, the drive continues to transmit DC zero and wait for COMINIT/COMSAS. Firmware is notified. This is not considered an error. If COMINIT is detected, COMSAS is transmitted, and COMSAS is not received before the COMSAS Detect Timeout timer expires, firmware is notified and the drive continues to transmit DC zero and wait for COMINIT. If speed negotiation fails with no match, or if the drive fails retrying the matched link rate, firmware is notified and the drive continues to transmit DC zero and wait for COMINIT. If the match link rate retry fails, the Phy Reset Problem counter is incremented (Log Page 0x18). If the drive loses DWORD sync long enough for the loss of sync timer to expire, firmware is notified and the drive transmits a COMINIT to initiate a new link reset. The Loss of DWORD sync counter is incremented (Log Page 0x18). If a disparity error or an invalid DWORD is detected by the drive, the Invalid DWORD Count is incremented (Log Page 0x18). The Running Disparity Error Count in Log Page 0x18 is not used 17.6 Link Layer The SAS link layer defines primitives, address frames, and connections. The Link layer is the interface between the Port layer and the Phy layer. This section describes Link Layer behaviors of the Drive. For a complete description of SAS Link Layer, please see the ANSI specification, SAS 1.1. 17.6.1 Address Frames Address frames are used for the identification sequence and for connection requests and are only sent outside connections. The Address Frame format is defined below: Table 28: Address Frame Format Byte 7 0 Rsvd 1-27 28-31 Bit 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Device Type Address Frame Type Frame Type Dependent bytes CRC HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 53 ·The ADDRESS FRAME TYPE field indicates the type of address frame and is defined in table 29.

The OPEN address frame is sent after the phy reset sequence completes. The OPEN Address Frame format is defined as follows: Byte 0 1 2-3 4-11 12-19 20 21 22-23 24-27 28-31 7 Initiator Port=0 Bit 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Protocol = 1 Address Frame Type = 1 Features = 0 Connection Rate = 8h or 9h or Ah Initiator Connection Tag Destination SAS Address Source SAS Address Source Zone Group Pathway Blocked Count Arbitration Wait Time More Compatible Features CRC · Initiator Port: This bit is set to zero when the Drive is the source port acting as a SAS target. · Protocol: this field is set to 001b to indicate SSP Protocol. · Features: this field is set to zero and ignored by the Drive per SAS 1.1. · Connection Rate: field should be set to 8h (1.5Gbps) or 9h (3Gbps), depending on requested link rate. Rate matching is supported by the Drive, therefore if the Link to the drive is 3.0Gbps, and the Connection Rate is 1.5Gbps, the Drive will insert ALIGNs between DWords, to match the Connection Rate. · Initiator Connection Tag: The Drive will set this value to the last value received from this Initiator. · Destination SAS Address: field contains the port identifier of the SAS port to which a connection is being requested. · Source SAS Address: field contains the port identifier on the port that originated this frame (i.e. the drive's port address). · Source Zone Group: This field is set to zero and ignored by the Drive per SAS 2. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 55 · Pathway Blocked Count: this field indicates the number of times the port has retried this connection request due to receiving OPEN_REJECT (PATHWAY BLOCKED). The Drive willl not increment the PATHWAY BLOCKED COUNT value past FFh. · Arbitration Wait Time: this field indicates how long the port transmitting the OPEN address frame has been waiting for a connection request to be accepted. For values from 0000h to 7FFFh, the Arbitration Wait Time timer increments in one microsecond steps. For values from 8000h to FFFFh, the Arbitration Wait Time timer increments in one millisecond step. · More Compatible Features: this field is set to zero and ignored by the Drive per SAS 1.1. 17.6.2 Link Layer Error Handling This section defines the Link layer error handling of the drive. Error Error Handling Procedure IDENTIFY Timeout If IDENTIFY is not received before the IDENTIFY timer expires (1ms), firmware is notified and the drive transmits a COMINIT to initiate a new link reset. BREAK Received If BREAK is received while the drive has ACK/NAK balance, BREAK or BREAK_REPLY is transmitted and a new connection may be opened if the drive still has frames to transmit. Firmware is not notified. If BREAK is received while the drive does NOT have ACK/NAK balance, BREAK or BREAK_REPLY is transmitted and the current command is aborted and will return Check Condition status with sense data indicating an ACK/NAK timeout. NAK and ACK/NAK Timeout If a NAK is received on a RESPONSE frame, the RESPONSE frame is retransmitted with the RETRANSMIT bit set to zero. If an ACK or NAK is not received for a RESPONSE frame within 1ms, the RESPONSE frame will be retransmitted with the RETRANSMIT bit set to one. The drive will retry sending a RESPONSE frame once. Bad Frame CRC If a frame fails the CRC check, the frame is NAKed by the drive and discarded. This is a link layer function. The command associated with a NAKed DATA or XFER_RDY frame is aborted with check condition status and sense data corresponding to DATA_PHASE_ERROR is returned. COMMAND frames that fail the CRC check are NAKed and discarded. OPEN_REJECT OPEN_REJECT Retryable Variations · OPEN_REJECT(RETRY) - Will be retried indefinitely by the drive. This case is considered to be occur when the initiator is temporarily not available to accept connections (for example when it is not able to extend R-Rdy credit at this time due to lack of buffers...), so the initiator will ask us to keep "RETRY"-ing, until it becomes available at a later time. Thus, we don't consider this an error condition, but part of normal behavior for the initiator. · OPEN_REJECT(RATE_NOT_SUPPORTED) If this occurs, it must mean that a link between the drive and initiator renegotiated to a lower link rate after the command was received. In this case, we retry in a new connection at 1.5Gbps. If this error is received for a 1.5Gbps connection, the command is internally aborted. OPEN_REJECT (PATHWAY_BLOCKED) · OPEN_REJECT(BAD_DESTINATION), OPEN_REJECT(WRONG_DESTINATION), OPEN_REJECT(PROTOCOL_NOT_SUPPORTED) If these OPEN_REJECTs are received, we internally abort the command. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 56 Credit Timeout DONE Timeout CREDIT_BLOCKED OPEN Frame Checking OPEN Response Timeout CLOSE Timeout Phy Not Ready If credit is not received before the credit timer expires, DONE(CREDIT_TIMEOUT) is sent to the Initiator. If credit is extended and the DONE timer expires, BREAK is sent by hardware to tear down the connection. If CREDIT BLOCKED is received and the drive has frames to send in the current connection, DONE(CREDIT_TIMEOUT) is returned. Otherwise, DONE(NORMAL) is returned. Reserved fields in the OPEN frame are not checked. · The Dest Address field is checked, and if it doesn't match OPEN_REJECT(WRONG_DESTINATION) is returned. · The Protocol field is checked and if it isn't set to SSP OPEN_REJECT(PROTOCOL_NOT_SUPPORTED) is returned. · If the Link Rate exceeds the physical link rate on that port, OPEN_REJECT(LINK_RATE_NOT_SUPPORTED) is returned. · The Initiator bit is not checked. If AIP or OPEN_ACCEPT is not received before the OPEN Response timer expires, the hardware transmits BREAK. If CLOSE is not received before the CLOSE timer expires, the hardware transmits BREAK. If Link Reset occurs outside of a connection, commands can execute normally across the link reset. If a link reset occurs inside of a connection, the behavior is similar to BREAK in that it is treated as an abruptly closed connection. In cases where the command cannot be continued normally (e.g. a frame is corrupted by OOB signals, or we do not have ACK/NAK balance), the command is terminated with CHECK CONDITION status with sense data corresponding to ACK/ NAK TIMEOUT. \ HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 57 17.7 Transport Layer The Transport layer defines frame formats. The Transport layer is the interface between the application layer and port layer. It is responsible for constructing and parsing frame contents. For SSP, the transport layer only receives frames from the port layer that are going to be ACKed by the link layer. This section describes Transport Layer behaviors of the Drive. For a complete description of SAS Transport Layer, please see the ANSI specification, SAS 1.1. The transport layer defines the frame format as follows.

Error SSP Header Field Checking Data Offset Error I_T NEXUS Loss Timeout Initiator Response Timeout Error Handling Procedure Reserved fields in SSP frames are not checked. If a DATA frame with an invalid Data Offset is received, the command associated with the DATA frame is aborted with Check Condition status and sense data corresponding to a DATA OFFSET ERROR is returned If a connection cannot be established to an initiator before the I_T NEXUS LOSS timer expires (Mode Page 0x19), all commands from the initiator are internally aborted. The first new command received from the affected Initiator results in a CHECK CONDITION with sense data corresponding to I_T NEXUS LOSS OCCURRED. If DATA frames corresponding to an outstanding XFER_RDY frame are not received before the Initiator Response timer expires (Mode Page 0x19), the command is aborted with CHECK CONDITION status and sense data corresponding to INITIATOR RESPONSE TIMEOUT is returned for the affected command. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 65 Data Overflow If more data is received than requested via an XFER_RDY frame, the affected command is aborted with CHECK CONDITION status with sense data corresponding to TOO MUCH WRITE DATA is returned. Invalid Target Port Transfer Tag If a DATA frame is received and the TPTT is not set to the value used in the corresponding XFER_RDY frame, the frame is discarded. If a COMMAND or TASK frame is received with the TPTT set to a value other than 0xFFFF, a RESPONSE frame with RESPONSE_DATA set to INVALID FRAME is returned. Invalid Frame Length If a DATA frame is received with zero bytes of payload data, the frame is discarded. This is not considered an error. If a COMMAND/TASK frame that is too short is received, RESPONSE data corresponding to INVALID FRAME is returned. The additional CDB length field of a COMMAND frame is not checked for correctness. If a DATA frame is received with a payload greater than 1024 bytes, the frame is discarded and the command is aborted with CHECK CONDITION status and sense data corresponding to DATA_PHASE_ERROR is returned.

The Data Out phase consists of a Parameter List header, optionally followed by an Initialization Pattern Descriptor, optionally followed by a Defect List. If FmtData=0, the following defaults are assumed: DPRY=0, DCRT=1, STPF=1, IP=0, DSP=0, Immed=0. · CmpLst · Set to one specifies that the Grown Defect List (GList) existing prior to the issuance of the Format Unit command be discarded. If provided, the DList then becomes the GList. Following these operations, the Drive will be formatted with the PList and GList. · Set to zero specifies that the GList existing prior to the issuance of the Format Unit command is retained. If provided, the DList is combined with the GList to become the new GList. Following these operations, the Drive will be formatted with the PList and GList. Note: The drive manages two internal defect lists and one external. The Plist is created at time of manufacture. The Glist is built after manufacture by the Initiators' use of the REASSIGN BLOCK command and the Automatic Reallocate functions. The Dlist is an external list. It is supplied by the Initiator in the Data Out phase of the FORMAT UNIT command. · Defect List Format specifies the format of the defect descriptor transferred to the Target when FmtData bit is set to one. The Target supports the following three defect descriptor formats for the FORMAT UNIT command: Format Description 000b Block format 100b Bytes From Index format 101b Physical Sector format If the FmtData bit is set to zero, this field must also be zero. Otherwise the command will complete with a CHECK CONDITION with a sense key of Illegal Request and an additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. ·Notes:It is recommended that the MODE SELECT command be issued prior to the FORMAT UNIT command to specify parameters that affect the formatting process. The Block Length parameter of the Mode Select Parameter List's Block Descriptor is used during formatting and is saved following a successful format operation. If a MODE SELECT command has not been issued since the last reset or start-up (bring-up) sequence, then the Block Length from the previous format operation is used. Subsequent to receiving a FORMAT UNIT command, the Target responds to commands as follows: HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 70 - All commands except REQUEST SENSE and INQUIRY return Check Condition status, while the format operation is an active I/O process. - When tagged queuing is enabled (DQue = 0), all commands except REQUEST SENSE and INQUIRY return Queue Full status, while the FORMAT UNIT command is a queued I/O process. - When tagged queuing is disabled (DQue = 1), all commands except REQUEST SENSE and INQUIRY return Busy status, while the FORMAT UNIT command is a queued I/O process - If a REQUEST SENSE command is received while a format operation is an active I/O process, the Target returns Good status. The sense key is set to Not ready and the additional sense code and qualifier is set to Format In Progress. - If an INQUIRY command is received while a format operation is an active I/O process, the Target returns Good status and Inquiry data as requested. The format operation must complete successfully for the Drive to be usable. If the command is interrupted by a reset, power down, or an unrecoverable error, the Drive enters a degraded mode of operation in which reading and writing are prohibited. To exit the degraded mode, another FORMAT UNIT command must be sent by the Initiator and completed successfully by the Target. The FORMAT UNIT command sets the Unit Attention Condition for all Initiators except the one that issued the FORMAT UNIT command. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 71 18.4.1 Parameter List Header Following is the format of the Parameter List Header sent during the data out phase when FmtData is set to one.

Type 0 protection specifies that the drive shall disable the use of protection information and format to the block size specified. Following a successful format, the PROT_EN bit in the READ CAPACITY (16) parameter data will indicate that protection information is disabled. Type 1 and type 2 protection specifies that the drive shall enable the use of protection information and format to the block size specified + 8 (e.g., if the block length is 512, then the formatted block length is 520). See format of data below. When protection information is written during a FORMAT UNIT command, protection information shall be written with a default value of all 0xFF's. Following a successful format, the PROT_EN bit in the READ CAPACITY (16) parameter data will indicate that protection information is enabled and the P_TYPE field in the READ CAPACITY (16) parameter data will indicate the protection type. BIT Byte 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0... n User Data n... n+1 Logical Block Guard n+2... n+3 Logical Block Application Tag n+4... n+7 Logical Block Reference Tag ·The Logical Block Guard field contains a CRC that covers the preceding user data. This field is generated/checked per the SBC standard. The Logical Block Application Tag field may be modified by the initiator if the ATO bit is set to zero in mode page 0x0A. If the ATO bit is set to one, then the initiator shall not modify the Logical Block Application Tag field. This field is generated/ checked per the SBC standard. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 72 · The Logical Block Reference Tag field is generated/checked depending on protection types. With Type 1 protection, the Logical Block Reference Tag in the first logical block of the data transfer shall contain the least significant four bytes of the LBA contained in the Logical Block Address field of the command. Subsequent blocks shall contain the previous logical block reference tag plus one. With Type 2 protection, the Logical Block Reference Tag in the first logical block of the data transfer shall contain the value in the Expected Initial Logical Block Reference Tag field of the command. Subsequent blocks shall contain the previous logical block reference tag plus one. · FOV (Format Options Valid) bit set to zero indicates that the Target should use its default settings for the DPRY (0), DCRT (1), STPF (1), IP (0), and DSP (1) bits. These bits must all be set to zero in the Parameter List Header when FOV=0, or the command will be terminated with Check Condition status, sense key of Illegal Request, and additional sense code of Invalid Field in Parameter List. FOV=1 indicates that the values set in DPRY, DCRT, STPF, IP, and DSP will be defined as specified below. · DPRY (Disable Primary) bit set to zero indicates that the Target does not use portions of the medium identified as defective in the primary defect Plist for Initiator addressable logical blocks. If the Target cannot locate the Plist or it cannot determine whether a Plist exists, the Target terminates the FORMAT UNIT command as described for STPF=1. A DPRY bit set to one indicates that the Target does not use the Plist to identify defective areas of the medium. The Plist is not deleted. DPRY must be set to 0 when DCRT is set to 0. · DCRT (Disable Certification) bit set to zero indicates that the Target performs a medium certification operation and generates a Certification List (Clist), and adds the Clist to the Glist. DPRY must be set to 0 when DCRT is set to 0. A DCRT bit of one indicates that the Target does not generate a Clist or perform a certification process. Note: Since the DCRT bit is part of the Data Out phase that follows the FORMAT command, the FCERT bit in Mode Page 0 is provided to control certification when the FORMAT command is issued with no Data Out phase. If a FORMAT command is issued with a Data Out phase then FCERT is ignored. · STPF (Stop Format) bit must be set to one. If one or both of the following conditions occurs, the Target terminates the FORMAT UNIT command with Check Condition status. The sense key is set to Medium Error and the additional sense code is set to Defect List Not Found if the first condition occurred or to Defect List Error if the second condition occurred. · The Target cannot locate a required Dlist nor determine that the list exists. ·The Target encounters an unrecoverable error while accessing a required Dlist. · IP (Initialization Pattern) bit set to zero specifies that an initialization pattern descriptor is not included and all customer data will be initialized to zeroes. An IP bit of one specifies that an Initialization Pattern Descriptor is included in the FORMAT UNIT parameter list following the parameter list header. Table 45: Initialization Pattern Descriptor: BIT Byte 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 IP Modifier = 0 SI Reserved = 0 1 Initialization Pattern Type = 0 or 1 2 - 3 Initialization Pattern Length (n-3) 4 Initialization Pattern ... ... n Initialization Pattern · IP Modifier must be set to 0, indicating that the drive will not modify the initialization pattern. · SI (Security Initialize) bit set to one specifies that all customer data sectors, including those that have been previously reassigned, will be initialized. SI set to zero specifies that only the current customer accessible sectors will be formatted. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 73 · Initialization Pattern Type - Type of 0 will use a default initialization pattern. - Type of 1 specifies that the Initialization Pattern specified shall be repeated as required to fill each logical block. · Initialization Pattern Length specifies the number of bytes that follow in the Initialization Pattern field, and must be less than or equal to the current block size, and non-zero. - If Initialization Pattern Type is 0 and the Initialization Pattern Length is not set to 0, Check Condition status will be returned, with the sense key set to Illegal Request and the additional sense code set to Invalid Field in Parameter List - If Initialization Pattern Type is 1 and the Initialization Pattern Length is set to 0, Check Condition status will be returned, with the sense key set to Illegal Request and the additional sense code set to Invalid Field in Parameter List. · DSP (Disable Saving Parameters) bit when zero indicates the target is to save all the current MODE SELECT saveable parameters during the format operation. When the bit is one, the target is not to save the current MODE SELECT saveable parameters. · Immed (Immediate) bit set to zero requests that status be returned at the end of the format operation. An immediate bit set to one requests that status be returned immediately following CDB validation and transfer of data in the Data Out phase. If the format operation, with the immediate bit set to one, terminates in error, DEFERRED ERROR SENSE data is generated. · Defect List Length field specifies the total length in bytes of the defect descriptors that follow (not including the Initialization Pattern Descriptor, if any). Up to 1024 defect descriptors are allowed. The Defect List Length must be equal to four times the number of defect descriptors for BLOCK format, or eight times the number of defect descriptors for BYTES FROM INDEX and PHYSICAL SECTOR formats. Otherwise the command is terminated with Check Condition status with the sense key set to Illegal Request and the additional sense code set to Invalid Field in Parameter List. 18.4.2 Defect Descriptor Three defect descriptor formats are supported. Entries are not required to be in ascending order. If an entry does not correspond to a valid user addressable media location, the command terminates with Check Condition status with the sense key set to Illegal Request and the additional sense code set to Invalid Field in Parameter List. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 74 18.4.2.1 Block Format - 000b Format of the Dlist sent during the data out phase when Dlist Format is Block format (000b) and FmtData is set to one.

An EVPD An EVPD bit of one specifies that the target return the vital product data page identified by the Page Code field in the CDB The available VPD pages are defined in the addendum provided for each different drive model in the section entitled Inquiry Data Format. The Page Code specifies which page of vital product data information the drive shall return. Table 50: Page Code descriptions EVPD 0 0 1 PAGE CODE Description 0 The Target returns the standard INQUIRY data. Non Zero The drive returns Check Condition status with the sense key of Illegal Request and the additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. Non Zero The drive returns the vital product data of page code requested. Allocation Length specifies the number of bytes that the Initiator has allocated for INQUIRY data to be returned. An allocation length of zero implies that no data is to be returned. The Target will terminate the DATA IN phase when all available INQUIRY data has been transferred or when allocation length bytes have been transferred, whichever is less. Note: If an INQUIRY command is received from an Initiator with a pending unit attention condition (before the target reports Check Condition status), the Target processes the INQUIRY command. The unit attention condition is not cleared by this action. Note: The INQUIRY command is a Priority command and is not queued. Note: The inquiry data is set at the time of manufacture and will not change, with the following exceptions: · Product Revision Level (EVPD=0) can be changed when microcode is downloaded with the Write Buffer command. · The information returned for EVPD=1, Page Code = 3 is not fixed. Note: The inquiry data returned when media is not available will not be complete. Byte 0 of the returned data on an INQUIRY command is the same no matter which page(s) is(are) returned. This description is to be used for all the following page definitions. The Peripheral Qualifier field of zero (0) indicates that the peripheral device is currently connected to this logical unit.

A value of zero is acceptable and is not considered an error. The drive updates only pages 0Eh, the Start/Stop Cycle page and 0Fh, the Application Client page. For other pages the parameters are ignored. If the data out buffer contains multiple pages then the application client should send the pages in ascending order. If the data out buffer contains multiple log parameters within a page, all log parameters within the page should be sent and they should be sent in ascending order by parameter code value. The drive shall return Check Condition status if the application client sends pages out of order, parameter codes out of order or missing parameter code. The sense key shall be set to Illegal Request and additional sense code set to Invalid Field in Parameter List. If one or more fields of the CDB are not set correctly the command will be terminated with a Check Condition status.

This specifies that the drive start transferring data starting from the field specified in the parameter pointer field for the number of bytes specified by the allocation length. If the PPC bit is set to 1, Check Condition status is returned with a sense key of Illegal Request and additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. · SP (Save Parameters) bit set to 0 specifies that the drive does not save any log parameters. If it is set to 1, all page parameters that are savable (those pages denoted by a DS = 0 in the parameter header control byte) are saved. · PC (Page Control) field defines the type of parameters to be selected. This field must be set to 01b to specify the current cumulative values. Any other value in this field will cause the command to end with a Check Condition status with a sense key of Illegal Request and an additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. · Page Code field identifies which page is being requested. This field must be set to the values indicated in Page 0. If the Page Code value is invalid a Check Condition status is returned with a sense key of Illegal Request and additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. · SubPage Code This field specifies the subpage to select. This field is not supported and must be set to 0. · Parameter Pointer Field specifies the beginning field for the transfer. This field must be set to 0000h. If the Parameter Pointer Field is not zero a Check Condition status is returned with a sense key of Illegal Request and additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. · Allocation Length field specifies the maximum number of bytes the Initiator has allocated for returned Log Sense Data. No bytes are transferred if the length is zero. This condition is not considered an error. The Target terminates the Data In phase when all available Log Sense data has been transferred or when the number of bytes equals the allocation length, whichever is less. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 98 18.7.1 Log Page parameters Each log page begins with a 4-byte page header followed by zero or more variable-length log parameters. Page header Page Code field identifies which log page is being transferred. The Page Length field specifies the length in bytes of the following log parameters. Log parameters Each log parameter begins with a 4-byte parameter header followed by one or more bytes of parameter value data. The Parameter Code field identifies which log parameter is being transferred for that log page. The Parameter Control field, the 3rd byte of each parameter header, contains several fields. - DU The Disable Update bit is set to 0 to indicate that the drive updates the log parameter value to reflect events that should be noted by that parameter. - TSD The Target Save Disable bit is set to zero to indicate that the drive provides a Target defined method for saving log parameters. - ETC The enable Threshold Comparison bit is set to 0 to indicate the drive does not perform comparisons between cumulative and any threshold values. - TMC The Threshold Met Criteria field is not valid because this drive does not perform threshold comparisons. This field is set to 0. - Format and Linking The F & L field indicates the type of log parameter and how parameters that reach their maximum value are handled. - 00b: Data counter: If any other parameter in this log page reaches its maximum value, then this parameter shall stop incrementing until reinitialized by a Log Select command. - 01b: List format ASCII data: No maximum values to handle - 10b: Data counter: If another parameter reported in this log page reaches its maximum value, then this parameter shall not stop incrementing.

This includes seek counters and buffer overrun/under run counters. The appropriate seek counter is incremented once during execution of Pre-Fetch, Read, Verify, Write, Write and Verify, Write Same, and Seek commands. Buffer Overrun conditions are detected during Read commands. Buffer Underrun conditions are detected during Verify with ByteChk=1, Write, Write and Verify, and Write Same commands. Only one seek counter is incremented for each of these commands and the counter is incremented only once per command. The length of the initial seek that is required to access the first Logical Block specified for the SCSI command determines which seek counter is incremented. The Zero Seek counter is incremented if a seek is not required or if only a head switch is HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 124 required to access the first Logical Block. After the initial seek, no further counter incrementing is performed for that command. Note: The length of a seek as reported in page 30 may differ from expected results. The reason for this is that the drive executes Idle Time Functions between operations of the drive. The seek operations that occur in Idle Time Functions are not directly entered into page 30 seek counters but they change the length of the following seek. This is because after the Idle Time Function is completed, the heads will not necessarily be in the same position as they were at the completion of the previous command. A buffer overrun or under run condition occurs when the Initiator does not transfer data to or from the Target data buffer fast enough to keep up with reading or writing the media. The buffer overrun counter is incremented during operations that require a Data In phase when a buffer full condition prevents the continued transfer of data from the media to the data buffer. The buffer under run counter is incremented during operations that require a Data Out phase when a buffer empty condition prevents the start or continuation of a data transfer from the data buffer to the media (or a data transfer from the media for a Verify command with BytChk=1). Buffer Overrun conditions are detected during the following SCSI commands: · READ (6) · READ (10) Buffer Under Run conditions are detected during the following SCSI commands: · VERIFY WITH BytChk=1 · VERIFY (16) WITH BytChk=1 · WRITE (6) · WRITE (10) · WRITE AND VERIFY · WRITE AND VERIFY (16) · WRITE SAME · WRITE SAME (16) · ZERO SEEKS The number of times no seek was required. The operation may have resulted in a head switch. · SEEKS >= 2/3 DISK The number of seeks equal to or greater than 2/3 of the disk. · SEEKS >= 1/3 AND < 2/3 DISK The number of seeks equal to or greater than 1/3 and less than 2/3 of the disk. · SEEKS >= 1/6 AND < 1/3 DISK The number of seeks equal to or greater than 1/6 and less than 1/3 of the disk. · SEEKS >= 1/12 AND < 1/6 DISK The number of seeks equal to or greater than 1/12 and less than 1/6 of the disk. · SEEKS > 0 AND < 1/12 DISK The number of seeks less than 1/12 of the disk. · OVERRUN COUNTER The number of times that data was available to be transferred from the media but the device buffer still contained data that had not been retrieved by the Initiator. Consequently, the disk had to take additional revolutions until the buffer was available to accept data. · UNDER RUN COUNTER HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 125 The number of times that the drive was ready to transfer data to its disk (on a write), but its buffer was empty (i.e., had not been filled by the Initiator), thus the disk was forced to take extra revolutions. · DEVICE CACHE FULL READ HITS The number of times that all of the data requested by the read operation was obtained from the device read or write cache. · DEVICE CACHE PARTIAL READ HITS The number of times that a portion, but not all, of the data requested by the read operation was obtained from the device read or write cache. A physical operation to the device media was required to obtain the remaining data. · DEVICE CACHE WRITE HITS The number of times that the data associated with a write operation replaces, or is combined with, existing data in the device write cache, thereby eliminating a write operation. · DEVICE CACHE FAST WRITES The number of times that space was available in the device write cache for the data associated with a write operation and a response was returned immediately. · DEVICE CACHE READ MISSES The number of times that none of the data requested by the read operation was obtained from the read cache. The statistics reported by this page are lost on a self-initiated reset or when the Drive is powered off. Even though the DS field equals zero, the parameters on this page are not savable.

The Max. Drive Temperature field specifies the maximum temperature, in degrees Celsius, the drive has ever reached. The Glist Size field gives the total number of LBAs that have been reassigned on the drive. The Number of Information Exceptions field gives the number of Information Exceptions during the life of the drive and not the number of Information Exceptions that have been reported. The number of reported Information Exceptions may be less due to the settings of Mode Page 0x1C. NOTE: This field does not include occurrences of any Information Exception Warnings. If set, the Media Exception and Hardware Exception bits indicate that an Information Exception has occurred during the life of the drive. These flags are set during an Information Exception that may or may not coincide with the reporting of an Information Exceptions as mentioned above. Total Read Commands counter is incremented for each Read (6) and Read (10) command received. Total Write Commands counter is incremented for each Write (6), Write (10), Write Verify and Write Verify (16) command received. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 127 Flash Correction Count is incremented each time ECC correction is applied to data stored in Flash ROM.

It also allows an Initiator to specify options the Target uses in error recovery, caching, and formatting. There is a single set of Mode Page parameters shared by all Initiators. · PF A PF (Page Format) bit value of one indicates that the data sent by the Initiator after the Mode Select Header and the Block Descriptor, if any, complies to the Page Format. The Target ignores this field since it only accepts mode parameters in the Page Format. · SP Save Pages. This indicates 0 The drive shall not save the pages sent during the Data Out phase but will use them for all following commands until the power is removed, a reset is received, or a new MODE SELECT command is received. 1 The drive will save the data in the reserved area of the disk. It will be used for all the following commands until another MODE SELECT command is issued. This information is maintained over a power cycle or reset of the drive. · Parameter List Length This specifies the number of bytes to be sent from the Initiator. A parameter list length of zero suppresses data transfer and is not considered an error. The MODE SELECT parameter list contains a 4-byte header followed by zero or one block descriptor followed by zero or more pages. The pages that are valid with this command are defined in the addendum under the heading Mode Select Data, as they vary with the drive model. Application Note The Initiator should issue a MODE SENSE command requesting all Changeable values (see PCF field in byte two of the CDB in) prior to issuing a MODE SELECT command. This is necessary to find out which pages are implemented by the drive and the length of those pages. In the Pages of the MODE SENSE command the drive will return the number of bytes supported for each Page. The Page Length set by the Initiator in the MODE SELECT command must be the same value as returned by the drive in MODE SENSE Page Length. If not, the drive will return Check Condition status with sense key of Illegal Request. Note: If an Initiator sends a MODE SELECT command that changes any parameters that apply to other Initiators, the drive shall generate an unit attention condition for all Initiators except for the one that issued the MODE SELECT command. The drive shall set the additional sense code to Parameters Changed (2Ah).

See the MODE SELECT (15) command for a description of the fields in this command. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 130 18.10 MODE SENSE (1A) Table 92: Mode Sense (1A) Bit Byte 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0 Command Code = 1Ah 1 Reserved= 0 RSVD DBD Reserved = 0 2 PCF Page Code 3 Subpage Code 4 Allocation Length 5 VU = 0 Reserved = 0 FLAG LINK The MODE SENSE (1A) command provides a means for the drive to report various device parameters to the Initiator. It is the complement to the MODE SELECT command. If the DBD (Disable Block Descriptor) bit is zero, the Target will return a Block Descriptor. If the DBD bit is set to 1, the Target will not return a Block Descriptor. Allocation Length indicates the maximum number of bytes that the Initiator has set aside for the DATA IN phase. A value of zero is not considered an error. If the allocation length is smaller than the amount available, that portion of the data up to the allocation length will be sent. This may result in only a portion of a multi-byte field being sent. Page Control Field: PCF (Page Control Field) defines the type of Page Parameter values to be returned. PCF Meaning 0 0 Report current values. The drive returns the current values under which the logical unit is presently configured for the page code specified. The current values returned are 1. Initially following power-up but before the media is accessed, the default values become current. Once the media can be accessed, the saved values are read from the Reserved Area and become current. 2.The parameters set in the last successful MODE SELECT command. 3.The saved values if a MODE SELECT command has not been executed since the last power-on, hard RESET con- dition, or TARGET RESET message. Following the completion of start-up, execution of the MODE SELECT command can modify the current values. Note: Those parameters associated with format are not considered current and are not saved until the successful completion of a FORMAT UNIT command. In addition, the current values take on the saved values after a reset if the parameters were saved. If the Page Code is 3Fh, then all pages implemented by the Target are returned to the Initiator with fields and bit values set to current values. If the Page Code is not 3Fh, the page defined by the Page Code, if supported by the Target, is returned with fields and bits set to current values. Note: The drive will not process the MODE SELECT command until the completion of spin-up. Therefore, the Initiator cannot modify the current values prior to the saved values being read in. 0 1 Report changeable value. The drive returns the changeable values for the page code specified. The page requested is returned containing information that indicates which fields are changeable. All bits of parameters that are changeable shall be set to one. Parameters that are defined by the drive shall be set to zero. If any part of a field is changeable, all bits in that field shall be set to one. Note: For a value field such as the buffer ratios of page 2 the bit field will not indicate the range of supported values but rather that the field is supported. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 131 1 0 Report default value. The drive returns the default values for the page code specified. The parameters not supported by the drive are set to zero. 1 1 Report saved value. The drive returns the saved value for the page code specified. Saved values are one of the following: - the values saved as a result of MODE SELECT command - identical to the default values - zero when the parameters are not supported The Page Length byte value of each page returned by the drive indicates up to which fields are supported on that page. Page Code: This field specifies which page or pages to return. Page code usage is defined in the figure below. Table 93: Page Code Usage Page Code Description 00h - 1Ch Return specific page, if supported. 3Fh Return all supported pages. If a Page Code of 3Fh is used, MODE SENSE returns the pages in ascending order with one exception. Page 0 is always returned last in response to a MODE SENSE command. If an unsupported page is selected, the command is terminated with a CHECK CONDITION status and available sense of ILLEGAL REQUEST/INVALID FIELD IN CDB. Subpage Code: This field specifies the subpage to return, and may be set to a specific page, or to FFh for all supported subpages. 18.10.1 Mode Parameter List The mode parameter list contains a header followed by zero or one block descriptors followed by zero or more variable length pages. 18.10.1.1 Header The header used for the 6-byte CDB is defined below.

When using the MODE SENSE command, the mode data length field specifies the length in bytes of the following data that is available to be transferred. The mode data length does not include the length byte itself. When using the MODE SELECT command, this field is reserved. · Medium Type field is always set to zero in the drive (Default Medium Type). · WP. When used with the MODE SELECT command, the Write Protect (WP) bit is reserved. When used with the MODE SENSE command, a Write Protect (WP) bit of zero indicates that the medium is write enabled. · DPOFUA bit value of 1 indicates that the Target supports the FUA and DPO bits in the Read and Write Commands. ·LONGLBA bit value of 0 indicates that any following Block Descriptor uses the Short LBA Block Descriptor format. A LONGLBA bit value of 1 indicates that any following Block Descriptor uses the Long LBA Block Descriptor format · Block Descriptor Length specifies the length in bytes of the block descriptor. Values of 0, 8, and 16 are supported by the Target, respectively corresponding to an absent Block Descriptor, a single Short LBA Block Descriptor, and a single Long LBA Block Descriptor. Note: DPOFUA is ignored during Mode Select command processing although the SCSI Standard states that it is reserved during Mode Select. Ignoring it allows the Mode Sense Parameter List for the byte containing this bit to be re-used as a Mode Select Parameter List.

When returned by the MODE SENSE command, the field contains the exact number of blocks. · Block Length The Block Length field reflects the number of bytes of user data per sector (not including any protection information). When used with the MODE SELECT command, the Block Length field must contain a value from 512 to 528 (8 bytes step) or zero. Otherwise the drive will terminate the command with Check Condition status. A FORMAT UNIT command is required to cause these parameters to become current only if the block length parameter is different from the current block length. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 134 18.10.1.3 Page Descriptor Table 98: Mode Parameter Page Format Byte 0 PS SPF Byte 1 Byte 2-n Page Code Page Length Mode Parameters Each mode page contains a page code, a page length, and a set of mode parameters. When using the MODE SENSE command, a Parameter Savable (PS) bit of one indicates that the mode page can be saved by the drive in the reserved area of the drive. A PS bit of zero indicates that the supported parameters cannot be saved. When using the MODE SELECT command, the PS bit is reserved (zero). SPF (Sub-Page Format) is set to zero to indicate the short page format is used. The bit is set to one to indicate the long format is used, supporting sub-pages. The drive supports the following mode page codes: Table 99: Mode Parameter Page Format Page Description PS 00 Vendor Unique Parameters 1 01 Read-Write Error Recovery Parameters 1 02 Disconnect/Reconnect Control Parameters 1 03 Format Device Parameters 0 04 Rigid Disk Geometry Parameters 0 07 Verify Error Recovery Parameters 1 08 Caching Parameters 1 0A Control Mode Page 1 0C Notch Parameters 1 19 Port Control Page 1 1A Power Control Parameters 1 1C Informational Exceptions Control 1 The page length field specifies the length in bytes of the mode parameters that follow. If the Initiator does not set this value to the value that is returned for the page by the MODE SENSE command, the drive will terminate the command with Check Condition status.

They will be initialized to zero but can be set as desired for compatibility with older drives. · MRG (Merge Glist into Plist) bit is set to 1 for merging the Glist entries into the Plist during FORMAT UNIT command. · VGMDE (Veggie Mode) bit set to 1 will cause the drive to execute random self-seeks. To enable this mode, the initiator must perform the mode select to set the bit while the drive is spinning, then Stop Unit, then Start Unit. VGMDE set to 0 disables the self-seeks (normal operation). · RRNDE (Report Recovered Non Data Errors) bit controls the reporting of recovered Non Data Errors when the PER bit is set. If RRNDE is set, recovered Non Data Errors are reported. If the RRNDE bit is not set, then recovered Non Data Errors are not reported. · FDD (Format Degraded Disable) controls the reporting of Format Degraded sense data for Test Unit Ready commands when the drive is in a format degraded state. When the FDD bit is one, Format Degraded sense data will not be reported for a Test Unit Ready command. When the FDD bit is zero, Format Degraded sense data will be reported for Test Unit Ready commands when the drive is in a format degraded state. This bit does not affect the reporting of Format Degraded conditions for any media access commands. · CAEN (Command Aging Enable) When set this bit causes the Command Age Limit timer to be used to avoid commands waiting in the command queue for an indefinite period. When commands have been in the queue for a period of time greater than the timer limit they will be reordered to be executed on a first come first served basis. When this bit is reset, commands are always executed based on the queue reordering rules. · IGRA (Ignore Reassigned LBA) bit works in conjunction with the RC bit (Mode Page 01h, byte 2, bit 4). The main purpose of this bit is to avoid undesirable read processing time delays due to reassigned LBA processing for continuous data availability requirements such as Audio Visual applications. If IGRA is set to one and RC is set to one, out-of- HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 136 line reassigned LBAs will not be processed. If IGRA is set to one and RC is set to zero, or if IGRA is set to zero, reassigned LBAs will be processed normally. · AVERP (AV ERP Mode) bit is set to one in order to specify maximum retry counts during Read DRP. When AVERP bit is set to one, the maximum retry counts for read operations is specified by Read Retry Count (Mode Page 1 Byte 3). AVERP bit is set to zero to specify that the drive shall process read DRP up to the default maximum retry count when Read Retry Count is set to a non-zero value. · OCT (Overall Command Timer) controls the maximum command execution time, from receipt by the drive until status is returned. If the command is unable to complete in the specified amount of time, it will be aborted with Check Condition status, Aborted Command sense key. The Overall Command Timer does not alter the behavior of the Command Aging Limit or Recovery Time Limit. Each unit of this timer is 50 milliseconds. Setting the value to zero disable the feature. · Temperature Threshold Temperature Threshold specifies the threshold value in degrees Celsius for the thermal sensor Information Exception Warning; the reporting of which is controlled by Mode Page 0x1C. A value of 0 selects the default value (85 degrees Celsius). · Command Aging Limit This value controls the maximum time a command should wait in the command queue when the CAEN bit is set. Each unit of this timer is 50 ms. · Read Reporting Threshold specifies the recovery step that must be exceeded to report recovered data errors during read operations when PER=1. For example, if the Read Reporting Threshold is set to 22, recovered read errors will be reported starting at recovery step 23 · Write Reporting Threshold specifies the recovery step that must be exceeded to report recovered data errors during write operations when PER=1. For example, if the Write Reporting Threshold is set to 20, recovered write errors will be reported starting at recovery step 21. · DRRT (Disable Restore Reassign Target) bit disables the reading and restoration of the target LBA during a Reassign Blocks command. If the DRRT bit is zero, the reassign command attempts to restore the target LBA's data. If the data cannot be restored, the target LBA is reassigned and written with a data pattern of all 00s. If the DRRT bit is one, no attempt is made to restore the target LBA. · FFMT (Fast Format Enable) bit allows the formatting of the drive without any writes to the customer media. All format operations are allowed including changing block sizes and manipulating defects. The drive will operate normally after a fast format with the following caveat: since no data is written to any customer data blocks as a result of a Fast Format operation, there is a possibility that a read attempt to any particular block (without having previously written to that block) will result in an unrecoverable data error. This will most likely happen if the block size is changed as every LBA will contain data of an incorrect length and apparently an incorrect starting point. It is also possible to generate an uncorrectable data error without changing block sizes if the defect list is shortened and previously bad blocks become visible in the customer address space. Of course ALL DATA ON THE DRIVE WILL BE LOST as the result of any format operation and so any attempt to read blocks which have not been written to will result in unpredictable behavior. · FCERT (Format Certification) bit determines whether the certification step will be performed during a Format Unit command. FCERT bit set to 0 disables certification. FCERT bit set to 1 enables the certification step.

An AWRE bit set to one indicates that the drive shall perform automatic reallocation of defective data blocks during write operations. · ARRE Automatic Read Reallocation Enabled bit, set to zero indicates that the drive shall not perform automatic reallocation of defective data blocks during read operations. ARRE bit set to one indicates that the drive shall perform automatic reallocation of defective data blocks during read operations. · TB Transfer Block bit, set to one indicates that a data block that is not recovered within the recovery limits specified shall be transferred to the Initiator before Check Condition status is returned. A TB bit set to zero indicates that such a data block shall not be transferred to the Initiator. Data blocks that can be recovered within the recovery limits are always transferred regardless of the value of the bit. · RC Read Continuous bit, set to one requests the Target to transfer the entire requested length of data without adding delays that would increase or ensure data integrity. This implies that the Target may send erroneous data. This bit has priority over all other error control bits (PER, DTE, DCR, TB). RC set to zero indicates normal interpretation of PER, DTE, DCR, and TB values. The RC bit setting is used by the Target when reporting errors associated with the transfer of the Initiator's data for the Read commands interpretation of PER, DTE, DCR, and TB values. The RC bit applies only to READ commands. Note: The Target implementation of the RC option is to disable error detection of the data fields but continue normal error detection and recovery for errors occurring in the servo field. If a servo field failure occurs, normal DRP could result in considerable recovery action, including proceeding through all levels of DRP. · EER an Enable Early Recovery bit, must be set to zero, indicating that the drive shall use an error recovery procedure that minimizes the risk of misdetection or miscorrection during the data transfer. Data shall not be fabricated. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 138 · PER a Post Error bit, is set to one to indicate that the drive reports recovered errors. · DTE (Data Terminate on Error) bit set to one specifies that data transfer will be halted when the first recovered error is encountered. PER must be set to one when DTE is set to one. DTE set to zero will cause data transfer to continue when recovered errors are encountered. · DCR a Disable Correction bit, is set to one to indicate that Error Correction Code is not used for data error recovery. A DCR bit of zero indicates that LDPC is applied to recover the data. · Read Retry Count sets a limit on the amount of DRP passes in which the Target attempts to recover read errors. A value of zero disables all data recovery procedures. When AVERP bit (Mode Page 0 Byte 6 Bit 6) is zero, a value of nonzero in Read Retry Count enables all steps of DRP. When AVERP bit is one, the number in Read Retry Count sets the maximum retry count of DRP. · Write Retry Count sets a limit on the amount of DRP passes in which the Target attempts to recover write errors. A value of zero disables all data recovery procedures. · Recovery Time Limit indicates the period in 1 millisecond increments for the maximum recovery time of a single LBA. The value must be from 40 ms to 65535 ms (65.5 seconds). The granularity of the timer is 50 ms. If an LBA is not able to be recovered within the limit, a Check Condition will be returned. The Recovery Time Limit will not be applied to Writes when WCE=1. A value of zero disables the timer.

The drive uses the disconnect/reconnect parameters to control when it attempts to regain control of the link during READ (operation code 08h and 28h) and WRITE (0Ah, 2Ah and 2E). · Read Buffer Full Ratio is the numerator of a fraction whose denominator is 256. The fraction indicates how full the drive data buffer should be before attempting to re-arbitrate for the link. If the ratio is set to 0h, the target will calculate and use an optimal ratio based on the negotiated transfer rate. · Bus Inactivity Time Limit specifies the maximum time that the SAS target port is permitted to maintain a connection without transferring a frame to the initiator port, specified in 100 microsecond increments. When this value is exceeded, the target port will prepare to close the connection by transmitting DONE. A value of zero indicates that there is no bus inactivity time limit. · Disconnect Time Limit is not supported. · Write Buffer Empty Ratio is the numerator of a fraction whose denominator is 256. The fraction indicates how empty the drive data buffer should be before attempting to re-arbitrate for the link. If the ratio is set to 0h, the target will calculate and use an optimal ratio based on the negotiated transfer rate. Both the Read Buffer Full Ratio and the Write Buffer Empty Ratio pertain to the current active notch. For each active notch as defined in page 0Ch there are separate Read Buffer Full Ratios and Write Buffer Empty Ratios. When the active notch is set to zero, the values are applied in mode page 0Ch across all notches. · Maximum Connect Time Limit specifies the maximum amount of time the drive will keep a SAS connection open. The time is specified in 100 microsecond increments. The default value of zero, indicates no time limit. A maximum value of FFFFh, specifies a connection time limit of 6.55 seconds. When this time expires, the drive will prepare to close the connection. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 143 · Maximum Burst Size field indicates the maximum amount of data that the target port shall transfer during a single data transfer operation. This value is expressed in increments of 512 bytes. A value of zero specifies there is no limit on the amount of data transferred per data transfer operation. · First Burst Size is not supported.

This bit is 0 since the Target does not support early recovery. · PER. See below for description of bit values. · DTE. (Data Terminate on Error) bit set to one specifies that data transfer will be halted when the first recovered error is encountered. PER must be set to one when DTE is set to one. DTE set to zero will cause data transfer to continue when recovered errors are encountered. · DCR. See below for description of bit values. The PER, DTE, and DCR bit settings in mode page 7 override those of mode page 1 during VERIFY and the Verify portion of WRITE AND VERIFY. The following combinations of PER and DCR are valid: PER DCR DESCRIPTION 0 0 Soft errors are not reported. LDPC is applied to recover the data. 1 0 Soft errors are reported. LDPC is applied to recover the data. 0 1 Soft errors are not reported. LDPC is not used to recover the data. 1 1 Soft errors are reported. LDPC is not used to recover the data. · Verify Retry Count sets a limit on the amount of verify recovery procedure (VRP) passes the Target attempts when recovering verify errors. The Verify Retry Count of one causes the Target to attempt up to one VRP pass per command when a medium error occurs during a verify operation. Only values of 0h and 01h are valid. The value of 0h disables all recovery. · Verify Recovery Time Limit indicates the period in 1 millisecond increments for the maximum recovery time of a single LBA during the verify operation.

The drive will never pre-fetch less data than specified by ABPF, MF, Demand Read Retention Priority, Write Retention Priority, Disable Pre-fetch Transfer Length, Minimum Pre-fetch, Maximum Pre-fetch, and Maximum Pre-fetch Ceiling, but may prefetch more based on internal cache algorithms. When the IC bit is set to zero, all the parameters listed above are ignored, and an internal caching algorithm is used. · ABPF (Abort Pre-fetch) bit of one, with DRA set to zero, causes the drive to abort the pre-fetch upon receipt of a new command. ABPF set to one takes precedence over Minimum Pre-fetch. When ABPF is zero, with DRA set to zero, the termination of any active pre-fetch is dependant upon the other parameters in this page. · CAP (Caching Analysis Permitted) is not supported and is ignored. The IC bit can be used to enable or disable adaptive caching. · DISC (Discontinuity) is not supported and is ignored. Pre-fetch operations will continue across cylinders, within the limits of other caching parameters on this page. · SIZE (Size Enable) bit when set to one indicates that the Cache Segment Size is to be used to control caching segmentation. When SIZE is set to zero, the Initiator requests that the Number of Cache Segments is to be used to control caching segmentation. · WCE (Write Cache Enable) bit when set at zero indicates that the drive must issue Good status for WRITE (6) or WRITE (10) command only after successfully writing the data to the media. When the WCE bit is set to one, the drive may issue Good status for a WRITE (6) or WRITE (10) command after successfully receiving the data but before writing it to the media. When WCE = 1, the drive operates as if AWRE = 1. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 149 Note: When WCE = 1, a SYNCHRONIZE CACHE command must be done to ensure data are written to the media before powering down the Target. · MF (Multiplication Factor) bit determines how the Maximum and Minimum Pre-fetch parameters are interpreted. If this bit is set to zero, the parameters are used as is. If the bit is set to one, the parameters are multiplied by the number of blocks requested in the Read Command. · RCD (Read Cache Disable) bit set at zero indicates that the drive may return some or all of the data requested by a READ (6) or READ (10) command by accessing the data buffer, not the media. An RCD bit set at one indicates that the Target does not return any of the data requested by a READ (6) or READ (10) command by accessing the data buffer. All of the data requested is read from the media instead. · Demand Read Retention Priority is not supported. · Write Retention Priority is not supported. · Disable Pre-fetch Transfer Length is used to prevent read-ahead after Read commands that are longer than the specified number of blocks. If this parameter is set to zero, a read-ahead is not performed. · Minimum Pre-fetch specifies the minimum number of LBAs that the drive should · after each READ command. A value of zero indicates that read ahead should be terminated immediately after a new command arrives, except when the new command is on the current head and track. · Maximum Pre-fetch specifies the maximum number of LBAs to read ahead after a Read command. · Maximum Pre-fetch Ceiling specifies the maximum number of blocks the drive should attempt to read ahead. This field is ignored. · FSW (Force Sequential Write) is not supported and is ignored. All logical blocks will be written in sequential order. · LBCSS (Logical Block Cache Segment Size) bit when set to one indicates that the Cache Segment Size field units shall be interpreted as logical blocks. When it is set to zero, the Cache Segment Size field units shall be interpreted as bytes. · DRA (Disable Read Ahead) bit when set to one requests that the Target not read into the buffer any logical block beyond the addressed logical block(s). When it is set at zero, the Target may continue to read logical blocks into the buffer beyond the addressed logical block(s). · Number of Cache Segments field is used to select the number of data buffer cache segments. This parameter is valid only when the SIZE bit is set at zero. It is ignored when SIZE is set at one. · Cache Segment Size field indicates the requested segment size in Bytes or Blocks, depending upon the value of the LBCSS bit. The Cache Segment Size field is valid only when the SIZE bit is one. It is ignored when SIZE is set at zero. · Non Cache Segment Size is not supported and is ignored.

A DPICZ bit set to one indicates that checking of protection information is disabled on commands with: a) the RDPROTECT field (see SBC-3) set to zero; b) the VRPROTECT field (see SBC-3) set to zero; or c) the ORPROTECT field (see SBC-3) set to zero. · Queue algorithm modifier specifies restrictions on the algorithm used for reordering commands that are tagged with the SIMPLE message. 0h: Restricted reordering. The Target shall reorder the actual execution sequence of the queued commands from each Initiator such that data integrity is maintained for that Initiator. 1h: Unrestricted reordering allowed. The Target may reorder the actual execution sequence of the queued commands in any manner it selects. Any data integrity exposures related to command sequence order are explicitly handled by the Initiator through the selection of appropriate commands and queue tag messages. 2h-7h: RESERVED. 8: Command reordering is disabled 9-Fh: RESERVED · QErr (Queue Error Management) The queue error management (QERR) field specifies how the device server shall han- HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 151 dle blocked tasks when another task receives a Check Condition status.

Those blocked tasks are allowed to resume execution 00b in a normal fashion after the CA condition is cleared. Specifies that all tasks from all Initiators are aborted when the Target returns Check Condition status. A unit attention condition will be generated for each Initiator that had commands in the queue except for the Initiator that received the Check Condition status. The 01b sense key will be set to Unit Attention and the additional sense code will be set to Commands Cleared by Another Initiator. 10b Reserved 11b Blocked tasks in the task set belonging to the Initiator to which a Check Condition status is sent shall be aborted when the status is sent. · DQue (Disable Queuing) bit set at zero specifies that tagged queuing shall be enabled if the Target supports tagged queuing. A DQue bit set at one specifies that tagged queuing shall be disabled. Command queuing is always enabled on the drive, therefore this bit is ignored. · ATO (Application Tag Owner) bit set to one specifies that the contents of the Logical Block Application Tag field in the protection information, if any, shall not be modified by the drive. An ATO bit set to zero specifies that the contents of the Logical Block Application Tag field in the protection information, if any, may be modified by the drive. If the ATO bit is set to zero, the drive will ignore the contents of the Logical Block Application Tag field in the protection information. · ATMPE (Application Tag Mode Page Enabled) bit set to zero specifies that the Application Tag mode page (see SBC-3) is disabled and the contents of logical block application tags are not defined by this standard. An ATMPE bit set to one specifies that the Application Tag mode page is enabled.

The Reservation Key must match the registered reservation key for the initiator for all service actions except REGISTER and REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY. Service Action Reservation Key contents vary based on the service action. For REGISTER and REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY, the Service Action Reservation Key must contain the new reservation key to be registered. For PREEMPT and PREEMPT AND ABORT, the field contains the reservation key of the persistent reservation that is being preempted. This field is ignored for all other service actions. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 176 If the Specify Initiator Ports (SPEC_I_PT) bit is set to zero, the device server shall apply the registration only to the I_T nexus that sent the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command. If the SPEC_I_PT bit is set to one for any service action except the REGISTER service action, then the command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status, with the sense key set to ILLEGAL REQUEST, and the additional sense code set to INVALID FIELD IN PARAMETER LIST. If the SPEC_I_PT bit is set to one for the REGISTER service action, the additional parameter data (see table XXX) shall include a list of transport IDs and the device server shall also apply the registration to the I_T nexus for each initiator port specified by a TransportID. If a registration fails for any initiator port (e.g., if the logical unit does not have enough resources available to hold the registration information), no registrations shall be made, and the command shall be terminated with CHECK CONDITION status. For Transport IDs, please refer to Table 179 on page 306 of Spc4r27. The All Target Ports (ALL_TG_PT) bit is valid only for the REGISTER service action and the REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY service action, and shall be ignored for all other service actions. Support for the ALL_TG_PT bit is optional. If the device server receives a REGISTER service action or a REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY service action with the ALL_TG_PT bit set to one, it shall create the specified registration on all target ports in the SCSI target device known to the device server (i.e., as if the same registration request had been received individually through each target port). If the device server receives a REGISTER service action or a REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY service action with the ALL_TG_PT bit set to zero, it shall apply the registration only to the target port through which the PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command was received.APTPL (Activate Persist Through Power Loss) bit is valid only for REGISTER and REGISTER AND IGNORE EXISTING KEY, and is ignored for all other service actions. If the last valid APTPL bit value received is zero, power loss will cause all persistent reservations to be released, and all reservation keys to be removed. If the last valid APTPL bit value received is one, any persistent reservation and all reservation keys for all initiators will be retained across power cycles. 18.13.4 Summary Table 134: PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT, Service Action, Parameters Service Action Scope Type Parameters Rsv SvcAct S-spec Extent APTPL Key RsvKey addr length (0) Register ignore verify save ignore ignore apply (1) Reserve apply verify ignore ignore ignore ignore (2) Release apply verify ignore ignore ignore ignore (5) Preempt and Abort apply verify save ignore ignore ignore Generation counter + 1 ----- + 1 HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 177 18.13.4.1 Scope, Type The Scope and the Type are applied in the process for the Reserve, Release, and Preempted and Clear service action but they are ignored in the process for the Register service action because they are not used. 18.13.4.2 Reservation Key The Reservation Key is verified in each service action process. If the Initiator that registered a key is different from the Initiator requesting PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command, the drive returns a Reservation Conflict status. 18.13.4.3 Service Action Reservation Key On Register service action, the drive saves the key specified in the Service Action Reservation Key field as a key of Initiator requesting PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT command. On Preempt and Clear service action, the reservation that has a key specified in the Service Action Reservation Key field is preempted. On other service actions, this field is ignored. 18.13.4.4 APTPL The APTPL (Active Persist Through Power Loss) is valid only for the Register service action.

The Buffer ID and the buffer offset field are reserved. The drive terminates the DATA IN phase when allocation length bytes of header plus data have been transferred or when the header and all available data have been transferred to the Initiator, whichever is less.

If any other value is specified, the drive returns all zeros in the READ BUFFER descriptor. · Buffer Offset field is reserved. · Allocation Length should be set to four or greater. The drive transfers the allocation length or four bytes of READ BUFFER descriptor, whichever is less. The allocation length of zero indicates no data is transfered.The allocation length of greater than zero and less than four (size of the Descriptor) is an invalid request and will cause the command to be terminated with Check Condition status.

The echo buffer will transfer the same data as when the WRITE BUFFER command was issued with the mode field set to echo buffer. WRITE BUFFER command with the mode field set to echo buffer should be sent prior to the READ BUFFER command; otherwise the READ BUFFER command will be terminated with Check Condition status and Illegal Request. In this mode Read Buffer transfers the specified amount of data or the amount previously written with a Write Buffer using mode 1010b from the echo buffer, whichever is less. Issuing a Read Buffer mode 1010b before a Write Buffer mode 1010b will cause indeterminate data to be returned. The most significant two bytes of the Allocation Length are ignored. The specified amount of data transferred should not be larger than the echo buffer capacity. The echo buffer capacity may be determined by using Read Buffer mode 1011b. Any additional data transferred over and above the echo buffer capacity is regarded as indeterminate. The Buffer ID and Buffer Offset fields are ignored in this mode. Note: The echo buffer is a separate buffer from the data buffer used with other read buffer modes. It is intended to be used for domain validation purposes. 18.21.5 Echo Buffer Descriptor (Mode 01011b) In this mode, a maximum of four bytes of Read Buffer Descriptor information is returned. The drive returns the descriptor information for the echo buffer. The Buffer Offset field is reserved in this mode and must be zero.

CDB Size contains the size of the CDB Usage Data field in the parameter data, and the number of bytes in the CDB for the command requested. CDB Usage Data contains information about the CDB for the command requested. The first byte of the CDB Usage Data field contains the operation code for the command. If the command contains a service action, then that service action code is returned in the same location as the Service Action field of the command CDB. All other bytes of the CDB Usage Data field contain a usage map for bits in the CDB for the command requested. The bits in the usage map have a one-for-one correspondence to the CDB for the command requested. If the drive evaluates a bit in the CDB, the usage map will contain a one in the corresponding bit position. The usage map will contain a zero in the corresponding bit position for any field treated as ignored or reserved. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 215 18.34.3 Command timeouts descriptor format 18.34.3.1 Overview The command timeouts descriptor (see Table 182: ) returns time-out information for commands supported by the logical unit based on the time from the start of processing for the command to its reported completion. Values returned in the command timeouts descriptor do not include times that are outside the control of the device server (e.g., prior commands with the IMMED bit set to one in the CDB, concurrent commands from the same or different I_T nexuses, manual unloads, power-on self tests, prior aborted commands, commands that force cache synchronization, delays in the service delivery subsystem). For commands that cause a change in power condition (Idle/Standby Powersave Modes), values returned in the command timeouts descriptor do not include the power condition transition time (e.g., the time to spinup rotating media). Values returned in the command timeouts descriptor should not be used to compare products.

The COMMAND SPECIFIC field contains time-out information (see Table 183: ) that is specific to one or more commands. If no command specific time-out information is defined by this or the applicable command standard, the COMMAND SPECIFIC field is reserved. Table 183: Command timeouts descriptor Command Specific Field usage Command Reference WRITE BUFFER See Section 18.34.3.2 18.34.3.2 WRITE BUFFER: command timeouts descriptor COMMAND SPECIFIC field usage For the WRITE BUFFER command, the COMMAND SPECIFIC field usage is reserved for all modes except the following: ·Download microcode mode (04h); ·Download microcode and save mode (05h); ·Download microcode with offsets mode (06h); ·Download microcode with offsets and save mode (07h); ·Download microcode with offsets and defer activation mode (0Eh) only if the microcode is activated by an event other than an activate deferred microcode mode; and ·Activate deferred microcode mode (0Fh). If the command timeouts descriptor describes one of the WRITE BUFFER modes listed in this subclause, then the COMMAND SPECIFIC field indicates the maximum time, in one second increments, that access to the SCSI device is limited or not possible through any SCSI ports associated with a logical unit that processes a WRITE BUFFER command that specifies one of the named modes. A value of zero in the COMMAND SPECIFIC field indicates that the no maximum time is indicated.

The SCSI specification defines READY as the condition where the device will accept a media-access command without returning Check Condition status. The drive will first verify that the motor is spinning at the correct speed. If the spindle motor is not spinning at the correct speed, Check Condition status is returned with sense key of Not Ready. If the motor is spinning at the correct speed, the drive accepts normal media access commands. The TEST UNIT READY command is not intended as a diagnostic. No self diagnostic is performed by the device as a result of this command. The TEST UNIT READY command has special significance for power sequencing using the UNIT START command with an Immediate bit of one. In this mode the UNIT START command returns Task Complete status before the completion of motor spin-up and expects the initiator to issue TEST UNIT READY commands to determine when the motor has reached the proper speed. Note: The spindle automatically starts in automatic spin-up mode. The drive does not execute any commands other than TEST UNIT READY, INQUIRY, or REQUEST SENSE command until the Power On sequence is complete.

A verification length of zero indicates that no data will be transferred. This condition is not considered an error. · ByteChk bit set to zero indicates that the data is read from the disk and verified using LDPC.If an LDPC error is detected in the verify process, Check Condition status is returned with sense key set to Medium Error. ByteChk bit set to one indicates that byte-by-byte comparison is performed between the data on the disk and data transferred from the initiator during the data-out phase. If the comparison is unsuccessful, the command is terminated with Check Condition status and the sense key is set to Miscompare. · DPO (Disable Page Out) bit of one indicates that the data accessed by this command is to be assigned the lowest priority for being written into or retained by the cache. A DPO bit of one overrides any retention priority specified in the Mode Select Page 8 Caching Parameters. A DPO bit of zero indicates the priority is determined by the retention priority. The Initiator should set the DPO bit when the blocks read by this command are not likely to be read again in the near future. If caching is enabled, the command performs an implied FUA and an implied Synchronize Cache before starting the VERIFY. This ensures that the medium, not the cache, is being verified. The command stops on Check Condition and reports the LBA in error. The command must be reissued, starting with the next LBA, to verify the remainder of the Drive. The Verification Length is the number of blocks to check. The data (if any) from the data-out phase and the data from the media are not retained in the cache. Therefore, the DPO bit has no effect on this command and is ignored. VRPROTECT defines the manner in which protection information read from disk shall be checked during processing of the command. Protection information is stored on disk, and may be validated using the drive's internal checking algorithms, and also byte-by-byte compared using data from the initiator when ByteChk=1.

Buffer ID must be zero. If another value is specified, no download function is performed and the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field in CDB. Buffer Offset must be zero. If another value is specified, no download function is performed and the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field in CDB. Parameter List Length specifies the number of bytes that shall be transferred during the DATA OUT phase. This number includes four bytes of header, so the data length to be stored in the drive buffer is transfer length minus four. If the length HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 256 exceeds the buffer size, the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field in CDB. A Parameter List Length of less than four (size of header) indicates no data is transferred.

Table 217: Write Buffer Header Bit Byte 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 0-3 Reserved = 0 18.59.2 Write Data (Mode 00010b) In this mode, the DATA OUT phase contains buffer data. Buffer ID must be zero. If another value is specified, no download function is performed and the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field In CDB. Buffer Offset specifies the offset of the memory space specified by the Buffer ID. The initiator should conform to the offset boundary requirements returned in the READ BUFFER descriptor. If the value exceeds the buffer specified, the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field In CDB. Parameter List Length specifies the Parameter List Length. It must be · less than the capacity of the buffer size after adding the Buffer Offset value and · on a sector boundary A Parameter List Length of zero indicates no data is to be transferred and command status is returned. If an invalid value is specified, the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field In CDB. 18.59.3 Download Microcode (Mode 00100b) NOTE: It is not expected that a customer will ever issue this format of the command. In this mode, the microcode is transferred to the control memory space of the drive. When downloaded, the drive will operate with the newly downloaded code immediately until the next power cycle. Buffer ID field is used to indicate which portion of the microcode image is being downloaded. The following Buffer IDs are supported by the Target: - 00h: Main Microprocessor Code - nnh: ID of Vendor Unique Reserved Area Any unsupported value for the Buffer ID will cause the command to terminate with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field In CDB. Buffer Offset must be zero. If an invalid value is specified, the command is terminated with Check Condition status. The drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field in CDB. Parameter List Length must be the size of the data set to be downloaded. It may also be set to 0000h in which case no code is updated and command status is returned. If an invalid value is specified, the command is terminated with Check Condition status. And the drive shall set the sense key to Illegal Request and additional sense code to Illegal Field In CDB. This process generates a unit attention condition for MICROCODE HAS BEEN CHANGED for all Initiators except the one HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 257 which sent the WRITE BUFFER command. Upon the completion of the WRITE BUFFER command the new microcode is immediately ready for operation. Note: The Download Microcode mode described in this specification is to indicate that the drive will accept a command with this mode, though it is not expected that a user will ever issue such a command. To use the write buffer command with this mode, a special microcode version is required from development. If such a microcode is released from development, then it will include appropriate instructions on the function of new microcode and its effect on the drive operations after download. 18.59.4 Download Microcode and Save (Mode 00101b) -Single Binary File In this mode the data is transferred to the drive to save into the System reserved area on the disk. This is for functional upgrade and configuration change reflecting the user's requirements and the manufacturer's reason or both, and it is stored in the media as a permanent copy. The newly downloaded code becomes effective after the drive issues and completes a self-initiated Power On Reset. Note: It requires up to 30 seconds to update the microcode including the Flash ROM update. Note: New code to be downloaded to the drive will be provided by development either by request of a customer for an additional function or as a result of a functional change by development. However please note that not all possible fixes or new functions can be applied to a drive in this manner and that there is a very high dependency on the level of ROM code contained within the drive. If an invalid code or a code not compatible with the ROM code is downloaded, the drive will usually reject this code and will continue normal operation. However there is a small possibility that an invalid code will be accepted. If this occurs, the unit usually becomes inoperable and will have to be returned to the manufacturer for recovery. Buffer ID field is used to indicate which portion of the microcode image is being downloaded. To download microcode, the buffer ID should be set to 00h. Other values are reserved for HGST development purposes only. 18.59.5 Download Microcode and Save (Mode 00111b) - Multiple Binary Files In this mode the target receives a segment of the binary microcode file. The Parameter List Length (segment length) of each segment shall be a multiple of 4K bytes. The total length of all segments received shall be equal to the total length of the binary microcode file. All segments must be sent in the proper sequential order. If an invalid Parameter List Length is specified, Check Condition status is returned with sense key of Illegal Request and additional sense code of Invalid Field in CDB. The first segment sent in this mode indicates, by default, the first segment of the binary microcode file. If a Check Condition status is returned in this mode, a Buffer ID == 00h in the subsequent Write Buffer command in this mode indicates the first segment of the binary microcode file. Otherwise the Buffer ID field is ignored. The Buffer Offset field is ignored. After all segments of the binary microcode file have been received, the drive behavior is the same as Download Microcode and Save (Mode 00101b) - Single Binary File. 18.59.6 Write Data to Echo Buffer (Mode 01010b) In this mode the Target transfers data into the echo buffer. The echo buffer is assigned in the same manner by the Target as it would for a WRITE operation. Data will be sent aligned on 4-byte boundaries. Upon successful completion of a WRITE BUFFER command the data will be preserved in the echo buffer unless there is an intervening command to any logical unit, in which case it may be changed. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 258 18.59.7 Enable Expander Communications Protocol (Mode 11010b) In this mode the drive behavior is the same as Write Data to Echo Buffer (Mode 0101b).

A subsequent read to this LBA would: a) Perform no error recovery on the block; perform no automatic reallocation of the affected logical blocks, including any automatic reallocation enabled by the Read-Write Error Recovery mode page; c) Not consider errors on the affected logical blocks to be informational exception conditions as defined in the Information Exceptions Control mode page (see SPC-4); d) not log errors on the affected logical blocks in the Error Counter log pages e) On a read to the LBA, return check condition status with the sense key set to Medium Error and the additional sense code set to read error marked bad by client. · WR_UNCOR - write uncorrectable, bit 6 in byte 1. If the COR_DIS bit is not set, the drive will behave in the following manor regardless of the state of this bit. The drive will create a pseudo unrecovered error with correction enabled. On following read commands to the LBA, the drive will: a) use our normal recovery procedures (which will end in a hard error); b) perform no automatic reallocation of the affected logical blocks, including any automatic reallocation enabled by the Read-Write Error Recovery mode page; HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 260 c) consider errors on the affected logical blocks to be informational exception conditions as defined in the Information Exceptions Control mode page (see SPC-4); d) log errors on the affected logical blocks in the Error Counter log pages e) On a read to the LBA, return check condition status with the sense key set to Medium Error and the additional sense code set to read error marked bad by client. The error state for LBA written with the COR_DIS or WR_UNCOR bits set, will remain in effect until the LBA is rewritten by a write, write same, format, write long without COR_DIS set, reassign or write verify command. · Logical Block Address field specifies the logical block at which the write operation shall occur. · Byte Transfer Length. This field must specify the exact number of bytes of data available for transfer. If a non-zero byte transfer length does not match the available data length, the Target terminates the command with Check Condition status, then the sense key is set to Illegal Request, and an additional sense code is set to Invalid Field in CDB. The valid and ILI bits are set to one and the information field is set to the difference of the requested length minus the actual length in bytes. Negative values are indicated by two's complement notation.

This command is useful for writing large data areas with the same data, without sending all of the data over the interface. Each logical block transferred includes user data and may include protection information, based on the WRPROTECT field and the drive format. Each logical block written includes user data and, if the drive is formatted with protection information enabled, protection information. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 265 If the drive is formatted with type 2 protection (PROT_EN=1 and P_TYPE=001b in the READ CAPACITY (16) parameter data), then this command will be processed normally. Any other protection types will result in Check Condition status to be returned with sense key of Illegal Request and additional sense code of Invalid Command Operation Code The Expected Initial Logical Block Reference Tag field contains the value of the Logical Block Reference Tag field expected in the protection information of the first logical block accessed by the command. If the ATO bit is set to one in Mode Page 0Ah, the Logical Block Application Tag Mask field contains a value that is a bit mask for enabling the checking of the Logical Block Application Tag field in the protection information for each logical block accessed by the command. A Logical Block Application Tag Mask bit set to one enables the checking of the corresponding bit of the Expected Logical Block Application Tag field with the corresponding bit of the Logical Block Application Tag field in the protection information. If the ATO bit is set to zero, the Logical Block Application Tag Mask field and the Expected Logical Block Application Tag field are ignored. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 266 19.0 SCSI Status Byte Upon the completion of a command a status byte is sent to the initiator. Additional sense information may also be available depending on the contents of the status byte. The following section describes the possible values for the status byte and sense data. All Reserved fields are set to zero. Table 223: SCSI Status Byte. Format of the SCSI STATUS byte. Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Reserved = 0 Status Code RSVD STATUS BYTE Description 00h GOOD The command has been successfully completed. 02h CHECK CONDITION An error, exception, or abnormal condition has been detected. The sense data is set by the drive. The REQUEST SENSE command should be issued to determine the nature of the condition. 04h CONDITION MET This status is returned when an unlinked PRE-FETCH command has been successfully completed. 08h BUSY This condition is returned when disconnect privilege is not granted while the drive is BUSY processing the other command for the other initiator. The normal initiator recovery action is to issue the command at a later time or to reissue the command and grant the disconnect privilege. 10h INTERMEDIATE Not supported. 14h INTERMEDIATE CONDITION MET Not supported. 18h RESERVATION CONFLICT This status is returned whenever an SCSI device attempts to access the drive, but it has been reserved by another initiator. 28h QUEUE FULL This status indicates that the target's command queue is full. If a tagged command queuing feature is enabled and there is no room on the command queue, this status is returned when the initiator sends a command. For this status, sense data are not valid. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 267 HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 268 20.0 Additional information This chapter provides additional information or descriptions of various functions, features, or operating models supported by the Target that are not fully described in previous chapters. 20.1 SCSI Protocol There are various operating conditions that prevent the Target from executing a SCSI command. This section describes each of these operating conditions and their relative priority. 20.1.1 Priority of SCSI Status Byte Reporting After establishing the I_T_L nexus or I_T_L_Q nexus the Target must first determine whether command execution is allowed. Execution is deferred until a later time if the command must be added to the command queue. Execution may also be prevented by an internal Target condition that requires the reporting of a Check Condition, Queue Full, Busy, or Reservation Conflict Status. There are several different internal conditions to be active at the same time. The order in which the Target checks for each of these conditions determines their priority (highest priority first) as follows: 1. Check Condition status for invalid Logical Unit Number. (See Section 20.1.2, "Invalid LUN Processing" on page 269) 2. Check Condition status for Incorrect Initiator Connection (See Section20.1.3, "Overlapped Commands" on page 270) 3. Check Condition status for Unit Attention Condition (See Section 20.1.5, "Unit Attention Condition" on page 271 4. Busy Status or Queue Full Status (See 20.1.4, "Command Processing During Execution of Active I/O Process" on page 270 5. Check Condition status for Deferred Error Condition (See Section 20.1.8, "Deferred Error Condition" on page 273) 6. Check Condition status during Startup and Format operations (See Section "20.1.6, "Command Processing During Startup and Format Operations" on page 273) 7. Reservation Conflict status (See Section 20.1.10, "Command Processing while Reserved" on page 281) 8. Check Condition status for invalid command opcode 9. Check Condition status for invalid command descriptor block The highest priority internal condition that prevents command execution is reported by the Target provided there is no bus error. For all Check Conditions Sense data is built by the target provided a valid LUN address is known. Sense data is cleared by the Target upon receipt of any subsequent command to the LUN from the initiator receiving the Check Condition. 20.1.2 Invalid LUN Processing Any value other than zero is invalid. The target's response to an invalid LUN varies with the command, as follows: Inquiry: Execute the command, return the INQUIRY data that indicates unknown device type (byte 0 = 7Fh), and return GOOD status. All other bytes are valid (see 18.5, "INQUIRY (12)" on page 78). Request Sense: Execute the command, return the sense data with the Sense Key set to Illegal Request and the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier set to LOGICAL UNIT NOT SUPPORTED, and return GOOD status (see also 18.36, "REQUEST SENSE (03)" on page 219). All Others: Do not execute the command and return CHECK CONDITION status, along with the auto-sense data with the Sense Key set to Illegal Request and the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier set to LOGICAL UNIT NOT SUPPORTED. In all cases, the target's response to the command for an invalid LUN does not affect the current execution of a command on the valid LUN for this initiator or any other initiator. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 269 20.1.3 Overlapped Commands The the drive does not perform any overlapped command checking. 20.1.4 Command Processing During Execution of Active I/O Process When the target is not executing any I/O processes, a new I/O process is permitted to execute (unless execution is prevented by another internal target condition listed in 20.1.1, "Priority of SCSI Status Byte Reporting" on page 269). If an active I/O process exists when the target receives a new command, then the target determines if: · the command is permitted to execute · the command is added to the queue · Queue Full status is to be returned · Busy status is to be returned If an active I/O process exists when the target receives a new command, then the target determines how the new command should be handled based on the following rules: · Check Condition status is returned with sense key set to Logical Unit Not Ready if: · the startup operation or a format operation is active. See 20.1.4, "Command Processing During Execution of Active I/O Process" on page 270 for the exact conditions which cause this response. Note: If a Unit Attention is pending when this condition exists, the sense key is set to Unit Attention rather than Logical Unit Not Ready since Unit Attention has a higher reporting priority (see 20.1.1, "Priority of SCSI Status Byte Reporting" on page 269). · The command is permitted to execute if: · the command is a priority command (see 20.5, "Concurrent I/O Process" on page 282). · the conditions to execute concurrently are met (see 20.5, "Concurrent I/O Process" on page 282). · The command is added to the queue if: · any I/O process already exists at the target, and · this is not an incorrect initiator connection. · Queue Full status is returned if: · the command would otherwise be added to the queue (according to the rules described above), but all slots in the queue are full, or · the command would otherwise be added to the queue (according to the rules described above), but all of the available queue slots not reserved for use by another initiator are full, or · a Format Unit command was previously queued but has not yet begun execution, or · the target is in a Degraded Mode (see 20.1.9, "Degraded Mode" on page 274) and a Start Unit command was pre- viously queued but has not yet begun execution. · Busy status is never returned on SCSI or FCAL. BUSY status is returned on SAS if more than 64 unique Initiators send frames to the drive since the last POR. In that case, BUSY status in only returned for Initiators above and beyond the first 64. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 270 20.1.5 Unit Attention Condition The target generates a unit attention condition when one of the following occurs: · The target has been reset This includes a power-on reset or a reset caused by a LUN Reset Task Management function or Hard Reset sequence. In all of these cases, a unit attention condition is generated for each initiator. · MODE SELECT command has been executed In this case, a unit attention condition is generated for all initiators except the one that issued the MODE SELECT command. The Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier reported is MODE PARAMETERS CHANGED. The unit attention condition is generated if any of the current page parameters are set by the MODE SELECT command. The target does not check to see that the old parameters are different from the new parameters. For example: If the initiator issues a MODE SENSE command with a page code to report the current values followed by a MODE SELECT command with the same parameter list, a unit attention condition is generated despite the fact that the current parameters were not changed from their previous value. However, if the target detects an illegal parameter or error condition prior to modifying the current parameters, a unit attention condition is not generated since the parameters were not set. The unit attention condition is also not generated if the MODE SELECT command parameter list does not include any pages and only the header or header/block descriptor is present. · FORMAT UNIT command has been executed In this case, a unit attention condition is generated for all initiators except the one that issued the FORMAT UNIT command. The Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier reported is NOT READY TO READY TRANSITION, (MEDIUM MAY HAVE CHANGED). This indicates that the block descriptor parameters from the last MODE SELECT command have been used and are now considered current values. · WRITE BUFFER command to download microcode has been executed In this case, a unit attention condition is generated for all initiators except the one that issued the WRITE BUFFER command. The Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier reported is MICROCODE HAS BEEN CHANGED. · Commands Cleared by another initiator This unit attention condition is generated after an initiator sends a Clear Task Set Task Management function. The unit attention condition is generated for all other initiators with I/O processes that were either active or queued for the logical unit. The Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier reported is COMMANDS CLEARED BY ANOTHER INITIATOR. · LOG SELECT command with PCR bit has cleared parameters. In this case, a unit attention condition is generated for all initiators except the one that issued the LOG SELECT com mand. The additional sense code and additional sense code qualifier reported is Log Select Parameters Changed. · The registration or reservation made by a Persistent Reserve Out command was cleared by another initiator. In this case, a unit attention condition is generated for the initiator that held the cleared registration or reservation. · A Predictive Failure Analysis threshold has been reached and the Method of Reporting field of mode page 1Ch is 2h. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 271 The unit attention condition persists for each initiator until that initiator clears the condition from the logical unit as described below. Several commands are handled as special cases during a unit attention condition These cases are also discussed below. If the target receives a command from an initiator before reporting a CHECK CONDITION status for a pending unit attention condition for that initiator, the target's response varies with the command as follows: Inquiry Execute the command, return GOOD status, and preserve the unit attention condition. Report Luns Same as above Request Sense Execute the command, return any pending sense data, return GOOD status, and preserve the unit attention condition. If there is not any pending sense data, the sense data associated with the highest priority unit attention condition is returned and the highest priority unit attention condition is cleared for this initiator. All Others Do not execute the command, return a CHECK CONDITION status, clear the highest priority unit attention condition for this initiator and return the associated sense data. More than one unit attention condition may be generated for an initiator before that initiator clears the unit attention condition. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 272 20.1.6 Command Processing During Startup and Format Operations If the Target receives a command from an Initiator while the Target is executing a startup or format operation, the response of the Target varies with the command as follows: INQUIRY The drive sends inquiry data and returns appropriate status. REQUEST SENSE Executes the command, returns a Sense key of NOT READY and an Additional Sense Code of LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY and returns GOOD STATUS. The Additional Sense Code Qualifier that is returned depends on type of I/O processes that are active: For the START/UNIT STOP and the Auto-start operation, the qualifier returned is LOGICAL UNIT IS IN PROCESS OF BECOMING READY. For the FORMAT UNIT command, the qualifier returned is LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY, FORMAT IN PROGRESS, and the Sense key specific bytes are set to return the progress indication. REPORT LUNS The drive sends REPORT LUNS data and appropriate status. ALL OTHER The drive terminates the command with CHECK CONDITION status. The Sense data generated is described in Request Sense above. 20.1.7 Internal Error Condition The Target generates an Internal Error condition for all Initiators when an internally initiated operation ends with an unrecoverable error, that is, the startup sequence for Auto Start enabled terminates after the SCSI bus has been enabled and prior to completion of the bring-up sequence. An Internal Error condition causes Sense data to be generated and saved for all Initiators. The Error Code field of the Sense is set for a Current Error (70h or 72h) and the Sense Key is set to HARDWARE ERROR. Recovered errors are not reported. The Internal Error condition persists for each Initiator until that Initiator clears the condition from the logical unit as described below. Several commands are handled as special cases during an Internal Error condition. These cases are also discussed. If the Target receives a command from an Initiator while an Internal Error condition exists for that Initiator, the response of the Target varies with the command as follows: INQUIRY REQUEST SENSE ALL OTHER The drive executes the command with GOOD status and does not clear the Internal Error condition. The drive executes the command, returns the sense data generated by the Internal Error condition, returns Good Status, and clears the Internal Error condition for that Initiator. The drive terminates the command with a CHECK CONDITION status and clears the Internal Error condition. 20.1.8 Deferred Error Condition Error code (71h or 73h) of sense data indicates that the Check Condition status returned is the result of an error or exception condition that occurred during execution of a previous command for which Good status has already been returned. The drive creates an Deferred Error condition when · Execution of a Format Unit command with the immediate bit of one ends with an error. · Execution of a Write command with WCE (Write Cache Enable) bit of one ends with an error. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 273 20.1.9 Degraded Mode There are certain errors or conditions which may impair the ability of the drive to function normally. Rather than fail hard the drive is designed to be as responsive as possible. Also, in most cases, some action on the part of the initiator may be used to restore normal operation. This mode of limited operation is called Degraded Mode. There are 3 conditions in the Degraded Mode: · Spindle Motor Degrade which is caused by one of the following conditions: - Spindle Motor was started (by POR or Unit Start command) and the Target is under Self Configuration. - Spindle Motor Failed to start. - Spindle Motor was stopped by Unit Stop command after the Target successfully completed the Self Configuration. · Self Configuration Failure Degraded which is caused by one of the following conditions: - RAM Code, Configuration Sector Read Failure - RAM Code, Configuration Sector Revision Mismatch · Format Command Failure Degraded. This condition is caused when Format Unit command failed or was interrupted abnormally (Mode Page 0, byte 5, bit 4 FDD controls Format Degraded mode) HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 274 20.1.9.1 Response to SCSI Command in Degraded Mode - Disable Auto Start The tables on the following pages show the degraded mode status with acceptable commands and additional sense codes Table 224: Spindle Motor Degraded Mode - Disable Auto Start Command (w/Option) Response Request Sense Executed.

Each time a Reserve command is executed successfully, the Target records the SCSI ID of the Initiator that made the reservation and the SCSI ID of the Initiator that is to receive the reservation. This information is needed to determine whether subsequent commands should be permitted or if the Reservation Conflict Status should be reported. The Initiator that made the reservation is the Initiator that issued the Reserve command. The Initiator to receive the reservation may be either the same or a different Initiator (third-party reservation). If the logical unit is reserved when a new command is received, the Target examines the command opcode and the SCSI ID of the issuing Initiator to determine whether a Reservation Conflict Status should be returned based on the following rules: If the issuing Initiator is the one that made the reservation and also the one to receive the reservation, then all commands are permitted. If the issuing Initiator is neither the one that made the reservation nor the one to receive the reservation, then - A Request Sense or Inquiry command is permitted. - A Release command is permitted but is ignored. - Any other command results in a Reservation Conflict Status. If the issuing Initiator is the one that made the reservation but is not the one to receive the reservation, then - An Inquiry, Request Sense, Reserve, or Release command is permitted. - Any other command results in a Reservation Conflict Status. If the issuing Initiator is not the one that made the reservation but is the one to receive the reservation, then - A Reserve command results in a Reservation Conflict Status. - A Release command is permitted but is ignored. - Any other command is permitted. If a Reservation Conflict Status is not reported and the command is permitted, then the Target checks the next highest priority internal condition to determine whether execution is allowed. See Section 20.1.1, "Priority of SCSI Status Byte Reporting" on page 269. 20.2 Priority Commands Certain SCSI commands always execute without returning a Busy Status or Reservation Conflict Status in response to the command. These commands are · Inquiry · Request Sense · Report LUNs · Test Unit Ready These commands are executed prior to attempting to complete the execution of any other pending command in the queue. These commands are never queued. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 281 20.3 Command Queuing When the initiator specifies that the drive shall disable command queuing, the initiator must send only untagged commands. When the initiator specifies that the target shall enable command queuing, the initiator may send either tagged or untagged command, but shall not use both at the same time. The following commands are never queued. · Priority Commands (i.e.: Request Sense and Inquiry) · Commands for an invalid LUN. 20.3.1 Queue Depth Any initiator can queue at least one command at any time irrespective of the actions of any other initiators in the system. A single initiator may queue up to 128 commands, if no other initiator has more than one command in the queue, although at times this maximum may be reduced as the drive can reserve command blocks for internal use. 20.3.2 Queue Full Status The drive will respond with QUEUE FULL status to a SCSI command when all queue slots are utilized. The SCSI command is not placed in the command queue under this condition. 20.3.3 Termination of I/O Processes Normal termination of I/O processes occurs when the target returns SCSI status. I/O processes may also be terminated by the following: · An ABORT TASK terminates the specified I/O process from the issuing initiator · An ABORT TASK SET terminates all I/O processes from the issuing initiator · A CLEAR TASK SET, TARGET RESET or reset terminates all I/O processes from all initiators 20.4 Command Reordering Command reordering is supported when enabled by the Queue Algorithm Modifier in mode page 0A (see 18.10.9, "Mode Page 0A (Control Mode Page Parameters)" on page 151. 20.5 Concurrent I/O Process Concurrent command are always allowed to execute concurrently with non-priority commands. A second priority command received while a priority command is being executed is put at the head of the command queue. · WRITE commands when another WRITE command is an active I/O process · READ commands when another READ command is an active I/O process When a concurrent command ends in CHECK CONDITION status, the QErr bit on the Mode Page 0Ah will determine how other active I/O processes from the same initiator for that drive will be handled. 20.6 Write Cache If the WCE (Write cache enable) bit is 1, the drive returns Good Status and closes the connection immediately after receiving the data of the last sector before actually writing the data onto the media. If the drive detects an error after it returns a Good Status, the drive sets a Deferred Error (Error Code of sense data = 71h) and a following command will be returned with Check Condition and the Contingent allegiance condition is established. Under the Contingent allegiance condition all queued processes including commands from other initiators are suspended. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 282 20.7 Automatic Rewrite/Reallocate The target supports Auto and Recommended Reallocate for READ, WRITE, WRITE VERIFY, and VERIFY. Automatic and Recommend Reallocate operate from within the read/write command. When an automatic reallocation occurs, the read or write command takes longer to complete. This operation is sometimes referred to as auto-reassignment due to its similarity to the operation performed by the reassign command. Following is a description of the target behavior for each setting of ARRE. ARRE setting affects all data errors. (No Sector Found, Data Sync Byte Errors and Data LDPC Errors.) ARRE=1: An error site determined to need rewriting or reallocation during a read is automatically rewritten or reallocated at the conclusion of the read and prior to the sending of the status. The site will be automatically rewritten or reallocated only if the data has been successfully read. ARRE=0: An error site determined to need rewriting or reassignment during a read is recommended for rewriting or reassignment at the conclusion of the read. The setting of the ARRE bit is checked and the target will automatically rewrite/reallocate or recommend rewrite/reassign for the following commands. · Read · Write For all other commands the ARRE setting is ignored and the target will not automatically rewrite/ reallocate or recommend rewrite/reassign. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 283 Following is a description of the target behavior for each setting of AWRE. AWRE setting effects only No Sector Found Errors on writes. AWRE=1: An error site determined to need reassignment during a write is automatically reallocated at the conclusion of the write and prior to sending the status. The site will be automatically reallocated only if the write recovery succeeded at the conclusion of the write. AWRE=0: An error site determined to need reassignment during a write is recommended for reassignment at the conclusion of the write. The setting of the AWRE bit is checked and the target will automatically reallocate or recommend reassign for the following commands. · Write(6) · Write(10) · Write portion of Write and Verify For all other commands the AWRE setting is ignored and the target will not automatically reallocate or recommend reassign. Auto/Recommend Reallocate information is communicated via the sense data returned following a command during which a site was determined to need rewriting or reassignment. The LBA returned in the sense data is the LBA that was determined to need rewriting or reassignment. The sense data combinations with auto/recommend rewrite/reallocate are listed below. Table 230: Sense data combinations with auto/recommend rewrite/reallocate Key Code Qual Description 1 17 01 Recovered Data with retries 1 17 06 Recovered Data without LDPC - Auto Reallocated 1 17 07 Recovered Data without LDPC - Recommend Reassign 1 17 09 Recovered Data without LDPC - Data Rewritten 1 18 00 Recovered Data with LDPC 1 18 02 Recovered Data with LDPC - Auto Reallocated 1 18 05 Recovered Data with LDPC - Recommend Reassign 1 18 07 Recovered Data with LDPC - Data Rewritten HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 284 20.8 Segmented Caching 20.8.1 Overview Segmented Caching divides the data buffer into several smaller buffers. Each buffer is used as Read/ Write/Read-Ahead buffer. 20.8.2 Read Ahead The Read Ahead function consists of reading data that the Initiator has not yet requested to the drive buffer. This function is intended to improve performance for an initiator that frequently accesses sequential data with successive SCSI read commands. The Read Ahead function works when RCD (the read cache disable) bit of read cache page (page 08h) is set to zero. The drive initiates the Read ahead function when the following conditions exist: · RCD is 0 · Read, Verify and Write and Verify is received. · The consecutive LBA of the requested LBA is not available in the buffer If SCSI reset or target reset message is received, all contents of segmented buffer is flushed. Even if an error occurs during the Read ahead, the error will not be reported to the Initiator. The data read before the error occurred will be stored as valid data by the Read Ahead function. 20.9 Multiple Initiator Systems This section describes how the target behaves in a multiple initiator system. Up to 64 initiators may be supported at any one time. 20.9.1 Sense Data A separate sense data area is reserved for each initiator. Each area is maintained independently. This allows a command from one initiator to complete with a CHECK CONDITION status and generate sense data without being affected by a subsequent command from a different initiator. There is no requirement for the first initiator to send a REQUEST SENSE command to retrieve the Sense Data prior to the execution of a command from a different initiator. 20.9.2 Mode Pages A single set of Mode pages is maintained. This includes both current and saved parameters. If a MODE SELECT command is executed that updates the current parameters, a unit attention condition is generated for all initiators except the one that issued the command. See 20.1.5, "Unit Attention Condition" on page 271 for more information. 20.10 Multiple Initiator Environment 20.10.1 Initiator Sense Data Separate sense data is reserved for each I-T-L. Each sense data is maintained independent of commands from other initiators. 20.10.2 Initiator Mode Select/Mode Sense Parameters A single shared copy of the Mode Select/Mode Sense parameters is maintained by the drive. This includes both the current and saved parameters. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 285 20.11 Reset Reset actions will return the drive to a known, initialized state. This device supports the Hard reset option as defined in the SCSI standards (see 7.1.9 Dev_Ctrl_Code_x on page 33) and the reset sources discussed below. 20.11.1 Reset Sources There are four sources of resets detected by the target: Reset Name Reset Source Power-On Reset This is the signal generated by the hardware at initial power-on Self-Initiated reset This is a software-generated reset that occurs when a catastrophic error is detected by the microcode. Hard Reset This is the Hard Reset performed during a Link Reset Sequence. LUN Reset This is a LUN RESET TMF (08h) sent in a TASK IU. 20.11.2 Reset Actions The action taken by the drive following a reset is dependent on the source of the reset. 20.11.2.1 Power-On reset and Self-Initiated reset These two reset conditions cause the following to be performed in the order shown: · A power-up sequence · A startup sequence is necessary to put the drive in a ready state These reset conditions cause the following actions: · If the reset occurs during the power-up sequence, the power-up sequence is re-started. · If the auto-start option is enabled and a start-up sequence has not yet completed, the start-up sequence is restarted. Note: The power-up sequence is not re-run, since it has already completed. · If the reset occurs while a physical sector is being written, the WRITE operation is disabled at the end of the current sector. The media is not corrupted if power is maintained to the end of the current sector. 20.12 Diagnostics The drive will execute Power on Diagnostics at power on time to assure the correct operation of the drive by validating components (ROM, RAM, Sector Buffer, EEPROM, HDC, Spindle Motor, Actuator), checking stored information in the Reserved Area and EEPROM, and verifying fault detects circuits. Self-test can be invoked by issuing a SEND DIAGNOSTIC command. 20.12.1 Power on Diagnostics At power on time the following tests are executed: 1. Validation of ROM and EEPROM 2. RAM test for internal RAM 3. Test and Initialize HDC registers HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 286 4. RAM test for Sector Buffer 5. Start Spindle Motor (if enabled) 6. Calibration of Actuator 7. Read/Write test for all Heads 8. Validation of RAM code and data table (RDM, Log, Mode Page) from the Reserved Area If Auto spin up is disabled, steps 5 - 8 will be executed by the first START STOP UNIT command which has the Start bit set. Faults detected before successful completion of the HDC section could prevent the drive from responding to a selection. Faults detected after the successful completion of the HDC test section will be reported as CHECK CONDITION status to the Initiator on the first command issued after a fault is detected (except for the INQUIRY, REPORT LUNS and REQUEST SENSE commands). The INQUIRY, REPORT LUNS and REQUEST SENSE commands will always be responded with a GOOD status. Detecting a fault during power on will not terminate execution of the tests nor will it terminate the power on process. 20.12.2 Self-test via SEND DIAGNOSTIC Command 20.12.2.1 Default Self-test The default self-test is invoked by the SlfTst bit in the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command. The response is simply a GOOD status if the test is successful or a CHECK CONDITION status if the test fails. The following tests are performed by the default self-test (in the order defined): 1. Spin check is to check if the spindle motor is running at the correct speed. 2. Write, Read and Compare test is a disk read/write test. It writes data to a predefined location in the reserved area and then reads it back and validates the content. All heads are tested. 3. Seek test is a servo test. It validates seeks to 256 random locations out of the full volume. 20.12.2.2 Short and Extended Self-tests There are two other types of self-tests that may be invoked using the Function Code field in the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command: a short self-test and an extended self-test. The tests performed in the short and extended self-tests are described later. The time required by a logical unit to complete its extended self- test is specified in the Extended self-test Completion Time field in the Control Mode Page. The results of self-test can be retrieved via the LOG SENSE command for Log Page 10. 20.12.2.3 Self-test Modes There are two modes for short and extended self-tests: a foreground mode and a background mode. These modes are described in the following clauses. Foreground mode When the drive receives a SEND DIAGNOSTIC command specifying a self-test to be performed in the foreground mode, the drive will return status for that command after the self-test has been completed. While performing a self-test in the foreground mode, the drive will respond to all commands except INQUIRY, REPORT LUNS, and REQUEST SENSE with a CHECK CONDITION status, a sense key of NOT READY and an additional sense code of LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY - SELFTEST IN PROGRESS. If the drive is performing a self-test in the foreground mode and a test error occurs, the drive will update the self-test results log page and report CHECK CONDITION status with a sense key of HARDWARE ERROR and an additional sense code of LOGICAL UNIT FAILED SELF-TEST. The application client may obtain additional information about the failure by reading the self-test results log page. An application client may terminate a self-test that is being performed in the foreground mode using an ABORT TASK, ABORT TASK SET, or CLEAR TASK SET task management function. If the drive receives an ABORT TASK, ABORT TASK SET, or CLEAR TASK SET task management function while performing a self-test in the foreground mode, it will abort the self-test and update the self-test results log page. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 287 Background mode When the drive receives a SEND DIAGNOSTIC command specifying a self-test to be performed in the background mode, the drive will return status for that command as soon as the command descriptor block has been validated. After returning status for the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command specifying a self- test to be performed in the background mode, the drive will initialize the self-test results log page as follows. The Function Code from the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command will be placed in the Function Code field in the log page. The self-test Results field shall be set to 0Fh. After the self-test results log page is initialized, the drive will begin the first self-test segment. While the device server is performing a self-test in the background mode, it shall terminate with a CHECK CONDITION status any SEND DIAGNOSTIC command it receives that meets one of the following criteria: a. The SlfTst bit is one b. The Function Code field contains a value other than 000b or 100b. When terminating the SEND DIAGNOSTIC command, the sense key shall be set to NOT READY and the additional sense code shall be set to LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY, SELF-TEST in PROGRESS. While performing a self-test in the background mode, the drive will suspend the self- test to service any other command other than SEND DIAGNOSTIC (with Function Code field set to 100b) WRITE BUFFER (with the mode set to any download microcode option), FORMAT UNIT and START UNIT STOP command. Suspension of the self-test to service the command will occur within 2 seconds. If SEND DIAGNOSTIC (with Function Code field set to 100b), WRITE BUFFER (with the mode set to any download microcode option), FORMAT UNIT or START UNIT STOP command is received, the drive will abort the self-test, update the self-test log, and service the command within two seconds after the command descriptor block has been validated. An application client may terminate a self-test that is being performed in the background mode by issuing a SEND DIAGNOSTIC command with the Function Code field set to 100b (Abort background self-test function). Elements common to foreground and background self-test modes The Progress Indication field returned in response to a REQUEST SENSE command may be used by the application client at any time during execution of a self-test to poll the progress of the test. While executing a self-test unless an error has occurred, the drive will respond to a REQUEST SENSE command by returning a sense key of NOT READY and an additional sense code of LOGICAL UNIT NOT READY - SELF-TEST IN PROGRESS with the sense key specific bytes set for progress indication. The application client may obtain information about the twenty most recently completed self-tests by reading the self-test results log page. This is the only method for an application client to obtain information about self-tests performed in the background mode. The default self-test results are not logged in the log page. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 288 Tests performed in the Short and Extended Self-test The following table defines the tests performed in the short and extended self test. They are defined by their segment number which is also used to report Self-Test Results, in Log Sense Page 10. Note that the only difference between the Short and the Extended tests, is the sequential verify test in segment 7h. Also note that either of these tests can be run in foreground or background mode as previously described. Table 231: Short and Extended Self-Test Description Segment Number Short SelfTest Extended Self-Test Test Description 1h Drive Ready Test Internal check to insure drive is "ready", similar to a Test Unit Ready command. 2h Drive Diagnostics This test is comprised of the Default Self Test as defined in Section 20.12.2.1, "Default Self-test" on page 287 3h SMART Perform SMART testing and check results to ensure that SMART threshold criteria are not exceeded 4h Low Level Format check Check to insure that the media is currently not in the MEDIA FORMAT CORRUPTED state. 5h Physical Head Check Write/Read test on each head in a predefined location in the drive's Reserved Area of the disk. 6h Random Verify Perform 4000 random verify operations and insure no uncorrectable errors. 7h - Verify First Verify all 300MB LBA's - Verify Last 100 MB Sequential verify operation. Ensure that no uncorrectable errors occur within the verify range. 8h Recheck SMART Same as segment 4h. 20.12.2.4 Background Medium Scan For a related function, see .Mode Page 1C (Informational Exceptions Control). HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 289 20.13 Idle Time Function The drive periodically saves data in logs and S.M.A.R.T. counters in the reserved area of the disks. The information is used by the drive to support various SCSI commands and for the purpose of failure analysis. 20.14 Command Time out Limits The 'Command Time-out Limits' are defined as the time period from the SCSI Arbitration phase through the SCSI Task complete message, associated with a particular command. The following times are for environments where Automatic Reallocation is disabled and there are no queued commands. 20.14.1 Reassignment Time The drive should be allowed a minimum of 5 seconds to complete a "Reassign Blocks" command. 20.14.2 Format Time Approximately 7.5 / 5.5 hours should be allowed for 3 / 2 TB capacity drives to complete a "Format Unit" command when certification is disabled. Allow 15 / 11 hours when certification is enabled. If "Fast Format" is enabled via the FFMT bit in mode page 00h, allow 30 seconds for completion. 20.14.3 Start/Stop Unit Time The drive should be allowed a minimum of 30 seconds to complete a "Start Stop Unit" command (with Immed bit = 0). Initiators should also use this time to allow startup sequences initiated by auto start ups and "Start Stop Unit" commands (with Immed bit = 1) to complete and place the drive in a "ready for use" state. Note: A time-out of one minute or more is recommended but NOT required. The larger system time-out limit allows the system to take advantage of the extensive ERP/DRP that the drive may attempt in order to successfully complete the startup sequence. Note: For SAS devices a NOTIFY(Enable Spinup) primitive is required prior to actually starting to spin up the spindle motor (regardless of whether a Start Stop Command with the Start bit set, was received or not). HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 290 20.14.4 Medium Access Command Time The time-out limit for medium access commands that transfer user data or non-user data or both should be a minimum of 30 seconds. These commands are Pre-Fetch Read Read Defect Data Seek Send Diagnostic (Function Code = 0) Read Long Reassign Blocks Write Write and Verify Write Buffer Write Same Verify Note: The 30-second limit assumes the absence of bus contention and data transfers of 64 blocks or less. This time should be adjusted for anticipated bus contention and if longer user data transfers are requested. 20.14.5 Time-out Limits for Other Commands The drive should be allowed a minimum of 5 seconds to complete these commands: Inquiry Log Select Log Sense Mode Select Mode Sense Persistent Reserve In/Out Read Buffer Read Capacity Read Long Release Request Sense Reserve Set/Report Device Identifier Start/Stop Unit (with Immed bit = 1) Synchronize Cache Test Unit Ready Writer Long The command time-out for a command that is not located at the head of the command queue should be increased by the sum of command time-outs for all of the commands that are performed before it is. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 291 20.15 Recommended Initiator ERP The Drive's design points for error reporting to the system assumes certain system action for the error return codes. These assumptions are: 1. SCSI protocol will be the first priority in reporting errors. 2. The system will maintain a log of all reported errors. 3. System architecture should include all error handling recommendations made in this section. Deviations should have mutual agreement between Drive development and system integration. This section is directed toward documenting the assumptions made by the Drive that the system is expected to implement. The two error classes that the system should be concerned with are DATA and NON-DATA errors. Data errors are those errors that deal with the handling of data to and from the MEDIA and are identified by the Additional Sense Code contained in the sense data. The Additional Sense Codes for data errors are as follows: · OC - Write error · 11 - Unrecovered read error · 14 - No record found · 16 - Data Synchronization mark error · 17 - Recovered read error without LDPC correction · 18 - Recovered read error with LDPC correction Typically, data errors do not include positioning of the heads or the data path though the electronics. Nondata errors are those errors that do not have a direct relationship with transferring data to and from the media. Nondata errors can include data handling if the media is not associated with the error (that is, interface error). The system action assumed for each class of error is outlined here. 20.15.1 Drive Service Strategy The Drive service strategy is defined so the customer will be able to use the system as soon after a failure is detected as possible. The first priority is to replace the entire drive to make the system operational with minimal service time. The service representative should: 1. Back up all the customer data on this drive if possible 2. Replace the complete drive 3. Restore the customer data 4. Return the drive to customer service HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 292 20.15.2 Recommendations for System Error Log The system error log should contain information about the Drive error that will allow recovery actions. The system error logs should contain all the error information returned in the sense data. At a minimum, the following information about each error occurrence should be logged. · Valid bit and error code (Sense byte 0) · Sense Key (Sense byte 2) · Information bytes (Sense bytes 3 through 6) · Command specific information (Sense bytes 8 through 11) · Additional Sense Code (Sense byte 12) · Additional Sense Code Qualifier (Sense byte 13) · Field Replaceable Unit (Sense byte 14) · Sense Key Specific (Sense bytes 15, 16, and 17) · Vender Unique error information (Sense bytes 20 through 23) 20.15.3 Data Recovery Procedure Statistically, most data error activity is noise related and has nothing to do with defects in the media. It is wrong for the system to assume that every data error reported occurred because of a defect in the media. It is also wrong for the system to assume that every data error that occurred because of a media defect rendered the Drive unusable. Recurring data error activity at the same physical location is an indication of a problem. The problem can be due to a media defect or magnetic damage. A media defect is physical damage to the recording capability of the media while magnetic damage is a defect in the bit pattern written to the media. In both cases, the error can be corrected without replacing the unit. The physical sector may require relocation. The Drive determines the need to reassign a sector. The Mode Select Page 1 option bit ARRE (See Section 18.10.3, "Mode Page 01 (Read/Write Error Recovery Parameters)" on page 138) set active allows the Drive to relocate recovered read data errors. Non recovered data errors or the ARRE bit being inactive will have additional sense codes returned to recommend reassignment of sectors. The need to reassign a sector should be infrequent. Sites not meeting error rate criteria are removed from use during SAT (Surface Analysis Test) in Drive manufacturing. With the exception of some early life SAT escapes (sites that were marginally missed during SAT), reassigning defective sectors should be rare. Frequent sector reassignment may be an (early) indication of another type of failure. Sector reassignments are monitored as part of the predictive failure analysis. When a threshold is exceeded, the Drive will notify the initiator that a scheduled service action is required. Drive soft error rates are based on extraneous random faults that are not predictable. Media defects discovered after the Drive completes manufacturing final test need to be relocated so that soft error rates are not influenced by predictable known error sites. Failure of the system to properly relocate defective media sites can have a direct influence on system throughput and drive error rates. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 293 20.15.3.1 Reassign a Physical Sector The Drive determines the need to reassign physical sectors based on error activity. Once a physical sector requires reassignment, the Drive will either reassign the physical sector, or recommend to the initiator that the LBA associated with the physical sector be reassigned. When the following Sense Key, Additional Sense Code, and Additional Sense Code Qualifier combinations are returned, the initiator should reassign the LBA reported at the next opportunity. Note: In Table 232, the Key, Code, and Qualifier fields are all hex values (i.e., Sense Key 1 is 1h, Sense Code 17 is 17h, etc.). Table 232: Recommend Reassign Errors Key Code Qual Description 1 17 07 Recovered Data without LDPC - Recommend Reassignment 1 18 05 Recovered Data with LDPC - Recommend Reassignment To reassign an LBA that has sense data recommending a reassignment, the initiator should: 1. Attempt to recover the data from the sector being reassigned with a Read (08) or Read (28) command. 2. Reassign the LBA using the Reassign Blocks (07) command. - If the reassignment completes successfully (Good Status), log the error in the system error log. - If the reassignment completes unsuccessfully (Check Condition Status), follow the procedure in Section 20.15.3.3, "Reassign Blocks Recovery" on page 295. 3. Write the LBA that was reassigned. 20.15.3.2 Data Error Logging The Drive will report data errors to the initiator that do not require immediate action (successful auto reallocation, successful auto rewrite, or no action needed on this occurrence). The initiator should log these errors in the system error log. No other action is required. Table 233: Log Only Errors Key Code Qual Description 1 16 00 Data Synchronization Mark Error 1 17 01 Recovered Data with Retries 1 17 06 Recovered Data without LDPC - Auto Reallocated 1 17 09 Recovered Data without LDPC - Data Rewritten 1 18 00 Recovered Data with LDPC 1 18 02 Recovered Data with LDPC - Auto Reallocated 1 18 07 Recovered Data with LDPC - Data Rewritten HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 294 20.15.3.3 Reassign Blocks Recovery The Drive provides the capability to remove media defects without reducing capacity. If the mode parameter bit ARRE is active, the Drive will automatically reallocate LBA's determined to be defective. For those LBA's where the error is unrecoverable or the initiator elects to not have the Drive automatically reallocate LBA's, the Drive will recommend reassignment of the LBA. Recovery from a failed reassignment consists of the following actions: · Updating the defect descriptor to remove the LBA's that have been successfully reassigned and then retry the Reassign Blocks command. The LBA contained in the Command Specific Information field of the Sense Data is the LBA in the first defect descriptor that was not reassigned because of the failure. If the command failed because of an unrecoverable read error other than those specified in the defect descriptor, add this LBA to the defect descriptor and retry the command. Refer to Section 18.28, "REASSIGN BLOCKS (07)" on page 203, for additional information. · If the retried Reassign Blocks (07) command completes successfully, returning to normal processing. · If the retried Reassign Blocks (07) command fails, servicing the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4 Nondata Error Recovery Procedure The Drive will follow a logical recovery procedure for nondata errors. The initiator options for non-data errors are limited to logging the error, retrying the failing command, or replacing the drive. These recovery procedures assume the initiator practices data back-up and logs errors at the system level for interrogation by service personnel. 20.15.4.1 Drive Busy The Drive is busy performing an operation. This is not an error condition. The initiator can test for completion of the operation by issuing Test Unit Ready (00) (or media access) commands. · If the Test Unit Ready (00) (or media access) command completes with Check Condition Status then issue a Request Sense (03) - If the specified recovery procedure for the sense data is for a condition other than drive busy, follow the recovery procedure for the condition reported. - If the specified recovery procedure for the sense data is for a drive busy condition, then continue re-issuing the Test Unit Ready (00) and Request Sense commands for the duration of a media access time-out or until the drive returns Good Status. - If the drive has been busy for longer than the limit specified in Section 20.14, "Command Time out Limits" on page 290, then service the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. Otherwise return to normal processing. · If the Test Unit Ready (00) (or media access) command completes with Good Status, then return to normal processing. 20.15.4.2 Unrecovered Drive Error The initiator should retry the failing command. 1. If the retry of the failing command completes with Good Status or recovered Sense Key, follow the recovery procedure in Section 20.15.4.3, "Recovered Drive Error" on page 296. 2. If the retry of the failing command completes with hardware error sense, verify there is no outside cause (e.g., power supply) for the failure, then retry the failing command. a. If the retry of the failing command completes with Good Status, follow the recovery procedure in next Section 20.15.4.3, "Recovered Drive Error" on page 296. b. If the retry of the failing command completes with Recovered sense or Hardware error sense, then service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 295 20.15.4.3 Recovered Drive Error The Initiator should log the error as soft with the recovery level. 20.15.4.4 Drive Not Ready The initiator should do the following: 1. Issue a Start Stop Unit (1B) command. 2. Verify that the drive comes ready within the time specified in Section 4.5.2, "Drive ready time" on page 10. 3. If the drive fails to come ready within the specified time, service the drive using the service guidelines specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 4. Retry the failing command. a. If the failing command completes with Good Status, log the error as recovered. b. If the failing command completes with Not Ready sense, verify there is no outside cause (for example, the power supply). Then service the drive using the service guidelines specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4.5 No Defect Spare Three conditions can cause this error: 1. When the Reassign Blocks (07) command is issued and there are no spares available for the Drive to use for the relocation requested. 2. When the Glist is full and the sector to be reassigned cannot be added. 3. During a format operation, there was not enough space available to fulfill the spare requirement (Dlist is too large). Service the Drive following Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4.6 Degraded Mode Refer to Section 20.1.9, "Degraded Mode" on page 274, for the definition of this state. There are three causes for entering degraded mode. In all cases the Sense Key is Not Ready. The causes are the following: 1. Sense Code/Qualifier of Logical Unit Not Ready, initializing command required. The spindle motor not spinning or not at the proper speed. This may not be an error condition. The initiator should issue a Unit start (1B) command to start the spindle motor. If the Drive fails to come ready in the time specified in Section 20.14, "Command Time out Limits" on page 290, service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 2. Sense Code/Qualifier of Diagnostic Failure. Failure of a Send Diagnostic self test, a start up sequence, or other internal target failures. - Failure of a send diagnostic self test or a start up sequence. This failure is the result of the diagnostics that are executed during power on or when the Send Diagnostic (1D) command is executed detecting a failure. As with the RAM code not loaded and the configuration data not loaded, the recovery is either a power cycle or issuing the Send Diagnostic (1D) command with the self test bit set active. Recovery for a failed Send Diagnostic (1D) is achieved in one of the following ways: Executing the Send Diagnostic (1D) command Power cycling the drive If the failure repeats, service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. Recovery for a failed power up sequence is achieved in one of the following ways: Issuing a Unit start (1B) command Power cycling the drive. If the failure repeats, service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 296 - Internal target failures The drive periodically adjusts the track following for each head to compensate for expansion and contraction of the disks due to temperature changes. If one of these adjustments fails, the drive will enter a degraded mode to prevent writing data off track. Recovery of this condition is either a power cycle or successful completion of the Send Diagnostic (1D). Service the drive using the recommended service guidelines specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292, if the power cycle or the Send Diagnostic (1D) command fail to complete successfully. 3. Sense Code/Qualifier of Format Command Failed Format Unit (04), Sense Code/Qualifier of Medium Format Corrupted Reassign Failed Reassign Blocks (07) command, or an automatic reallocation failed or was abnormally terminated. Recovery from a failed Format Unit (04) is achieved by retrying the command. If the command fails a second time, service the drive following the procedure defined in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. If the above defined recovery procedures fail to clear the degraded mode condition, the Drive should be replaced. Follow the procedure in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292, when replacing the drive. 20.15.4.7 Reserved Area Hard Error Sectors found defective in the reserved area of the disk cannot be reassigned after the Drive leaves the factory. The data in the reserved area is not directly accessible by the initiator. For this reason, the reserved area has all data. A data error must occur in both copies of the data record before the Drive considers a reserved area read error. When this happens, the integrity of the drive is questionable. Service the Drive using Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4.8 Interface Protocol For all interface protocol errors, the initiator should complete the following steps: 1. Correct the parameter that caused the Illegal Request 2. Retry the failing command 3. If the first retry of the failing command completes with - Good Status, log the error as recovered - Check Condition Status with sense data for an Illegal Request, verify there is no outside cause (for example, the power supply) for the failure - Other, follow the recommendations for the error condition reported. Retry the failing command. If this retry of the failing command completes with · Good Status, log the error as recovered · Check Condition Status with sense data for an Illegal Request, service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. · Other, follow the recommendations for the error condition reported. 20.15.4.9 Aborted Command The initiator should determine the cause from the Additional Sense Code (byte 12): · Sense Key = B (Aborted Command) with Additional Sense Codes of 1B, 25, 43, 49, and 4E are initiator caused abort conditions. The initiator should correct the condition that caused the abort and retry the failing command. · Sense Key = B (Aborted Command) with Additional Sense Code of 44 or 48 are drive caused abort conditions. The initiator should: 1. Retry the failing command. 2. If the retry of the failing command completes with HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 297 - Good Status, log the error as recovered. - Abort Command Sense, verify there is no outside cause (e.g. power supply) for the failure. 3. Retry the failing command. 4. If the retry of the failing command completes with - Good Status, log the error as recovered. - Abort command sense, then service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. · Sense Key = B (Aborted Command) and an Additional Sense Code of 47 can be an initiator or Drive caused abort condition. The initiator should follow the above procedure for initiator caused abort conditions if the Drive detected the SCSI bus parity error. The initiator should follow the above procedure for Drive caused abort conditions if the initiator detected the SCSI bus parity error. 20.15.4.10 Unit Attention Condition Unit Attention Conditions are not errors. They alert the initiator that the drive had an action that may have changed an initiator controlled state in the drive. These conditions are the following: Not Ready to Ready Transition Not ready to ready transition, unit formatted. This Unit Attention Condition will not be reported to the initiator that issued the Format Unit (04). Reset Reset - This means the drive was reset by either a power-on reset, Hard Reset, LUN Reset TMF or an internal reset. Mode Parameters Changed A Mode Select (15) command successfully completed. This means that the mode parameters that are the current value may have changed. The parameters may or may not have changed but the command to change the parameters successfully completed. The Drive does not actually compare the old current and the new current parameters to determine if the parameters changed. This Unit Attention Condition will not be reported to the initiator that issued the Mode Select (15). Microcode Has Changed Write Buffer (3B) to download microcode has successfully completed. This means that the microcode that controls the Drive has been changed. The code may or may not be the same as the code currently being executed. The Drive does not compare old level code with new code. Commands Cleared by Another Initiator Tagged commands cleared by a clear queue message. This means that the command queue has been cleared. The Unit Attention Condition is not reported to the initiator that issued the clear queue message. Unit Attention Condition is reported to all initiators that had commands active or queued. Reissue any outstanding command. Log Select Parameters Changed A Log Select (4C) command successfully completed. This means that the Log Select command cleared statistical information successfully (See Section 18.6, "LOG SELECT (4C)" on page 95). Unit Attention Condition is reported to all initiators excluding the initiator that issued the Log Select command. Device Identifier Changed A Set Device Identifier (A4) command successfully completed. This means that the Set Device Identifier information field has been updated. (See 18.41, "SET DEVICE IDENTIFIER (A4/06)" on page 230) A Unit Attention Condition is reported to all initiators excluding the initiator that issued the Set Device Identifier command. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 298 20.15.4.11 Components Mismatch The compatibility test is performed at a power cycle. The compatibility test verifies the microcode version of the electronics. When the Drive detects the microcode version mismatch, the most likely cause is the result of incorrect parts used during a service action. If the error reported is Key/code/qualifier 4/40/80, Diagnostic failure, bring-up fail, the initiator should do the following: 1. Retry Power cycle 2. Check the send diagnostic end status. If the status is - GOOD, Return to normal processing - Check Condition Status, issue a Request Sense (03) and follow the recommendations for the sense data returned unless the sense data is for a component mismatch. If the sense data is for component mismatch, service the drive using the service guideline recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4.12 Self Initiated Reset The Drive will initiate a self reset when the condition of the Drive cannot be determined. The internal reset will terminate any outstanding commands, release any reserved initiators, and stop the spindle motor. The initiator can recover by 1. Logging the error 2. Retrying the failing command. If the failing command completes with: - Good Status, return to normal processing - Self initiated reset sense, service the drive according the guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Ser- vice Strategy" on page 292. - Other, follow the recommendations for the error reported. 20.15.4.13 Defect List Recovery This is not an error condition. The initiator either requested a defect list in a format (block or vendor specific) that the Drive does not support or the requested defect list(s) exceed the maximum list length that can be returned. If the Sense Key/Code/Qualifier are: 1/1F/00, the requested list(s) exceed the maximum length that can be supported. The initiator should request one list at a time. If a single list exceeds the maximum returnable length, this may be an indication of a marginally operational drive. Service the drive following the service guidelines in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 1/1C/01 or 1/1C/02, the requested defect list is not in the format that the Drive supports. The requested defect list is returned in the physical (cylinder, sector, head) format. This is the default format. There is no initiator action required for this condition. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 299 20.15.4.14 Miscompare Recovery A miscompare can occur on a Verify (2F) command or a Write and Verify (2E) with the byte check (BytChk) bit active. Recovery for a miscompare error is different for the two commands. Verify Command The initiator should do the following: 1. Verify that the data sent to the drive is the correct data for the byte-by-byte compare. 2. Read the data from the media with a Read (08) or Read (28) command and verify that the data from the media is the expected data for the byte-by-byte compare. - If all data are correct, this is an indication that the data may have been read from the media incorrectly without an error detected. Service the drive using the procedure specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. - If all data are not correct, this is an indication that the data on the media is not the data the initiator expected. Rewrite the correct data to the media. Write and Verify Command The drive uses the same data in the data buffer to write then read and compare. A miscompare error on the Write and Verify (2E) command is an indication that the drive cannot reliably write or read the media. Service the drive using the procedures specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. 20.15.4.15 Microcode Error The microcode from the interface is validated before the device operates using that microcode. When the validation detects incorrect or incomplete data, the Drive enters degraded mode. If the initiator attempted to load microcode using the Write Buffer (3B) retry the Write Buffer (3B). If the command completes with · Good Status - return to normal processing · Check Condition Status - service the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Ser- vice Strategy" on page 292. If the check sum error occurred during normal processing, the initiator may attempt to load microcode before deciding to service the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. To load new microcode, the initiator should issue a Write Buffer (3B) command with the download and save option. If the Write Buffer (3B) command completes with · Good Status, return to normal processing. Retry the failing command. If the task complete with - Good Status - Continue normal processing. - Check Condition Status for check sum error - Service the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. - Check Condition Status for any other error - follow the recommended recovery procedure for the error reported. · Check Condition Status for Check sum error, service the drive using the service guidelines recommended in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. · Check Condition Status for any other error, follow the recommendations for the returned sense data. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 300 20.15.4.16 Predictive Failure Analysis The Drive performs error log analysis and will alert the initiator of a potential failure. The initiator should determine if this device is the only device with error activity. If this drive is the only drive attached to the initiator with error activity, service the drive using the procedures specified in Section 20.15.1, "Drive Service Strategy" on page 292. Note: Service for this drive can be deferred. The longer service is deferred, the more probable a failure can occur that will require immediate service. If more than this drive is experiencing error activity, the drive is probably not at fault. Locate and service the outside source causing error activity on this drive.

T10 SCSI Standard.(T10 homepage - (http://www.t10.org/index.html) 21.2 Implementation Exceptions The following is a list that describes non-compliance with the TCG Enterprise SSC specification: · The SSC specification requires support for 1024 bands, but the implementation supports up to 64 bands. · The K_AES_256 table was implemented with only the UID and MODE columns. · At any given time, the implementation allows for only 1 active session. In the case when a session is active and a new session is requested, the drive answers the host with SP_BUSY, instead of NO_SESSIONS_AVAILABLE 21.3 Implementation Features and Details Outside of TCG Specifications The following features are outside of the TCG specifications. 1. Ports 2. Firmware signing The following implementation details are outside of the TCG SSC specification. a. The SSC States "The TPer SHALL implement the ParamCheck Longitudinal Redundancy Check (LRC) for Get and Set method calls on a PIN value". If the LRC check is erroneously applied to a value other than a PIN we ignore it, therefore no error is generated. b. When handling a "TCG cmd followed by a R/W cmd", all reads and writes that follow a TCG command will be processed in the normal way. No special handling or error messages will be sent to the host. It is up to the host to understand the possible outcomes of TCG commands and r/w command ordering and plan accordingly. c. CRC checking is disabled in all cases, so the drive will return data to the host. If the user successfully authenticates, then unencrypted data is returned to the host. If the user is unable to authenticate, encrypted data is returned to the host. d. The TPer replies with SP_BUSY for requests beyond 1 session. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 304 21.4 Encryption Algorithms 21.4.1 Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Support AES encryption is implemented in hardware, with support for ECB or XTS mode for 128 bit or 256 bit keys. A single key is active at any one time within the AES hardware engine. Firmware is responsible for reading the keys from the hardware and also for determining which key is attached to a given LBA range; the hardware can only detect if the LBA has been encrypted or not. The TCG protocol does not allow for a user to choose or switch between AES algorithms, so it is up to the vendor to choose which AES algorithm is used in their implementation. The HGST TCG SSC implementation in firmware supports AES 256-XTS only. 21.4.2 Level 0 Discovery Vendor Specific Data This section refers to section 10.2.14 of the TCG Storage Security Subsystem Class document (see the Specifications section of this document). Table 2 of Section 10.2.14 displays a "Vendor Specific" section in bytes 16 to 47. This Vendor Specific section is documented below. Table 234: Persistent Reserve In (5E) Bit Byte 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 16 Version (set to 0) 17 18 19 20 21 22-47 RSVD RSVD MB_s MB_e Vendor Specific State Information Reserved 0 0 Diag_s Dload_s Locking_s Reserved 0 0 Diag_s Dload_e Locking_e Reserved FDE_s FDE_e FDE_s/FDE_e - Full disk encryption is Supported (equivalent to Media Encryption in Locking Feature Descriptor Enterprise SSC 10.2.14) / Full disk encryption is Enabled on one or more band. Locking_s/Locking_e - LBA band locking is supported - locking object exists in the locking SP of the device (equivalent to Locking Enabled in Locking Feature Descriptor Enterprise SSC 10.2.14) / The locking object for a band has either ReadLocked or WriteLocked attribute set (equivalent to Locked in Locking Feature Descriptor Enterprise SSC 10.2.14). Dload_s/Dload_e - support for Admin SP Firmware download port / Firmware download port via Admin SP is locked. Diag_s/Diag_e - Support for Admin SP vendor specific Diagnostic port / Diagnostics port via Admin SP is locked. MB_s/MB_e - Multiple encrypting bands supported / Multiple encrypting bands enabled. This bit shall be set to 1 if more than one band exists in addition to the global band and is defined with at least one LBA. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 305 21.4.2.1 T10 End-To-End Data Protection AES encryption is performed after T10 end-to-end data protection data has been added, so that the T10 information is encrypted along with the customer data. 21.4.3 Pseudo Random Number Generation (PRNG) Pseudo-random number generation is implemented using the NIST SP800-90 PRNG. This PRNG uses AES as a primitive both for entropy mixing and entropy output. The successive values of the state of the PRNG are kept private to the device to ensure that keys generated by the device are unpredictable. The PRNG seed is derived from head position noise and has been measured to be uniformly distributed. 21.4.4 Key Wrapping The NIST AES Key Wrapping Algorithm is used to encrypt a key with another key (KEK= Key Encryption Key). For any band i, the KEK_i is derived from PIN_i and salt_i using the PBKDF2(Password-Based Key Derivation Function) algorithm. Then, the KEK_i is used to wrap the media encryption key using the NIST key wrapping algorithm. 21.4.5 Key Erasure Cryptographic erase procedure Erase and overwrite wrapped key material with 0x00. Erase and store the new wrapped key material. 21.5 -TCG SSC Tables Two copies of all TCG SCC tables and data structures are stored in the RID; one is used as a primary copy and the other as a backup copy. The backup copy is used in the event the primary copy becomes corrupted. Each time a write is executed to any TCG table, both the primary and backup copies of the tables are updated and saved in the RID. In the case of a corrupted copy, the good copy is always used to restore the corrupted copy to the correct state. If both copies of the tables become corrupted during operation, the tables will be reinitialized to default values automatically, and this will result in a key mismatch error when a read is attempted. The default values in the TCG tables created at the time of manufacturing are per the TCG SSC specification. The following tables contain VU (Vendor Unique) entries, which are set at the time of manufacturing. Admin SP C_PIN table Locking C_PIN table K_AES_256 table Locking SP Locking Access Control table LockingInfo Table Locking SP Locking Table The VU entries for these tables are specified below. In addition, explanation of default values is given for non-VU entries that require it. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 306 21.5.1 Admin SP C_PIN Table and Locking SP C_PIN Table Per TCG SSC specification, the PIN is set to the MSID at manufacturing time. HGST has specified the MSID to be the serial number of the drive concatenated 4x. TryLimit is set to 0, meaning that there is no limit. Tries is set 0, meaning that there have been no fail attempts. Persistence is set to 0, meaning the "Tries" value does not persist through power cycles (The "Tries" value is reset to 0 after successful attempt or a power cycle). Table 235: HGST Implementation of Admin SP_CPIN & Locking C_PIN .. PIN TryLimit Tries Persistence .. MSID 0 0 0 .. MSID 0 0 0 .. .. .. .. .. .. MSID 0 0 0 21.5.2 K_AES_256 Table The K_AES_256 table has 64 rows, one row for each band that can be allocated by the user. The first row is for the "global range", also known as Band 0. This table was implemented without the "Name", "CommonName", and "Key" Columns. Table 236: HGST Implementation of K_AES_256 Table UID (8 byte hex) 00 00 08 06 00 00 00 01 00 00 08 06 00 00 00 02 .. 00 00 08 06 00 00 00 40 MODE 23 23 .. 23 The mode is specified in the TCG Enterprise SSC as a "Vendor Unique" (VU) entry. HGST initializes it in manufacturing to mode=23 (media encryption mode, per TCG specification) for all 64 entries. 21.5.3 Locking SP AccessControl Table The TCG Enterprise SSC defines the values for Row Number and UID as "Vendor Unique" (VU). HGST has defined them to be the row number in the table, with a range of 0-459 The range is calculated using the following formula: number_of_rows=(#SupportedBands * 7) +12, where #SupportedBands = 64 (The implementation supports 64 bands) The number 7 comes from the fact that each band has 7 UID/method combinations The number 12 comes from the following 12 methods that must be included in the table. 1.

The HGST implementation HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 308 uses 06. 21.6 Firmware Download and Signing The HGST Firmware signing and download for encryption drives is meant to provide a mechanism for secure updates through the Host interface. Firmware is downloaded to the drive through the host interface, and the signature is verified using a public key installed in the reserved area during manufacturing, before it is loaded to RAM or installed in the reserved area on the HDD. Signature verification uses the RSA-PSS (Probabilistic Signature Scheme) signature verification algorithm with EMSASHA256 as padding function. The firmware was designed and implemented with the intention of meeting the signing requirements under FIPS 140-2. All HGST firmware packages will be signed, but only encryption enabled drives will verify the signature. If the signature cannot be successfully verified on encryption drives, the firmware cannot be downloaded onto the HGST encryption drives. Failures to authenticate the firmware image will result in Check Condition with KCQ 5/26/9a (FRU 0). The act of issuing a firmware download to the drive will result in an implicit close of all open sessions at the security layer. 20.6 Ports The ports capability is an HGST feature which is not a requirement under TCG Enterprise SSC. In order to use the ports capabilities on encryption drives, the user must successfully authenticate. Once a user successfully authenticates, they may change the state of any of the ports at any time during an active session to either the locked or unlocked state. The functionality and definition of these ports is shown below in a table. The feature does make use of the TCG structures and tables. An additional table, the ports table, has been implemented, and additional entries were made to the Admin SP ACE table and the Admin SP AccessControl Table. The ports table and the modified TCG SSC tables are shown below HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 309 Table 240: Ports Functionality Port Name Firmware Download Description This port has 2 valid states: locked and unlocked. On encryption drives, the download port is unlocked initially, LockOnReset is "Null". Code can be downloaded onto the drive after the signature is successfully verified. If the signature cannot be verified successfully, no firmware can be downloaded to the drive. The user can change the state of the firmware download port only after authentication. On non-encryption drives, this port will be set to unlocked at the factory, and the state cannot be changed by the user. Firmware will be downloaded to the non-encryption drive through this port without verification of the signature. Diagnostics This port has 2 valid states: locked and unlocked. This port allows HGST access to modify any TCG table or key. In order to open this port both the SID and the Maker authorities need to be authenticated. The purpose of this port is to aid HGST in debugging Table 241: Ports Table UID Name LocOnReset PortLocked 00 01 00 02 00 01 00 02 00 01 00 02 00 01 00 01 Firmware_Dload_Port Diagnostic_Port Null PowerCycle FALSE TRUE Table 242: Modified Admin SP ACE Table UID Name Cmn Name Boolean Expression Row Start Row End Column Start Column End 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 01 Anybody "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 01 Null Null `''' `''' 00 00 00 08 00 00 00 03 Makers `''' 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 03 Null Null `''' `''' 00 00 00 08 00 00 02 01 SID "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 Null Null `''' `''' 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 03 SID_SetSelf "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 Null Null "PIN" "PIN" 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 04 MSID_Get "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 01 Null Null "PIN" "PIN" 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 05 SID_Set Makers "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 Null Null "Enabled" "Enabled" SID_Makers_ 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 06 SetDiag SID_Makers_ 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 07 SetDiag 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 "" And Null Null "PortLocked" "PortLocked" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 03 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 "" And Null Null "PortLocked" "PortLocked" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 03 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 08 SID_GetPort "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 Null Null "PortLocked" "PortLocked" 00 00 00 08 00 00 8C 09 SID_GetPort "" 00 00 00 09 00 00 00 06 Null Null "LockOnReset" "PortLocked" The last 2 lines of the table are the additional entries required to implement the firmware download port.

HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 311 21.7 MSID The MSID is set for each drive at the time of manufacturing to the serial number concatenated 4 times, to create a 32 byte password. Thus, as an example, if the serial number of a drive is abcd1234, the MSID would then be set to abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234. In TCG use cases such as "erase" or "repurpose", this will be the MSID that is restored to the drive. HGST serial numbers are unique and are generated according to the following general rules: Maximum length of the serial number is 8 characters Serial numbers do not contain the characters "I" or "O". 21.8 Logging HGST logging functions will not record any sensitive data such as customer plain text data, passwords, encryption keys or wrapping keys. . 21.9 Number of Sessions The HGST implementation supports 1 active session at a time. In the case when a session is active and a new session is requested, the drive answers the host with SP_BUSY. This covers the following 2 scenarios. If an SP is in session and an attempt is made to start a second session with the same SP. If an SP is in session and an attempt is made to start a second session with a different SP. 21.10 Number of Bands The Enterprise SSC specification calls for support of up to 1024 bands. The HGST implementation supports a maximum of 64 bands. 21.11 Number of COMIDs The HGST Enterprise SSC implementation supports 2 COMIDs, the minimum requirement in the Enterprise SSC specification. Only 1 comid can be in use at any time. 21.12 Locked and Unlocked Behavior 21.12.1 T10 SCSI commands The table below describes how basic T10 SCSI commands behave on encryption drives in the locked and unlocked states.

The TCG SSC requires the implementation of the Base, Admin, Locking, and Crypto Templates. As noted, the Crypto template was not implemented. In addition the SSC does not require any Admin Template tables or methods, so HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 314 they are not mentioned in the table below. Table 245: TCG Enterprise SSC Commands Behavior Command Session Management Properties Description unlocked There are two types of sessions: 1) Read-Only session 2) Read-Write session. The SSC requires us to support Read- Write sessions. Read-Only session is not allowed. A session is always initiated by the host.

When a session is active and a new session is requested, the drive answers the host with SP_BUSY, instead of NO_SESSIONS_AVAILABLE. 20.14 Customer Specific Requirements This specification does not cover customer-specific requirements. Customer-specific requirements are submitted by the customer to HGST in the form of a customer-specification document. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 316 22.0 SCSI Sense Data 22.1 SCSI Sense Data Format Introduction Sense data is returned as CHECK CONDITION status and as parameter data in response to the REQUEST SENSE command. The sense data returned by the drive can be in either fixed or descriptor format 22.1.1 Sense Data Format Format of sense data returned as a CHECK_CONDITION_STATUS is based on the value of the D_SENSE bit in the Control mode page (See section 18.10.9). The REQUEST SENSE command may be used to request either the fixed format sense data or the descriptor format sense data (See section 18.36). 22.1.2 Sense Data Length Length of the sense data returned as part of CHECK_CONDITION status is determined by the sense data format: a) Length of fixed format sense data is always 32 byte. b) Length of descriptor format sense data is 60 byte (Generic Configuration) For REQUEST SENSE command, length of the sense data is the number of bytes in the command's Allocation Length or the sense data length described above, whichever is less. 22.1.3 Sense Data Response Code The first byte of all sense data contains the RESPONSE CODE field that indicates the error type and format of the sense data. Table 246: , "Sense data response codes." shows the RESPONSE CODE values which may be returned by the drive Table 246: Sense data response codes. Response Code Error Type Sense Data Format 70h Current Fixed 71h Deferred Fixed 72h Current Descriptor 73h Deferred Descriptor Current Error:This indicates an error for the current command. Deferred Error:This indicates that the error is for a previous command that has already returned a good status. Such commands are associated with the immediate bit or write caching. Format unit (04h) command is an example of a command that may return a deferred error. HGST Ultrastar 7K3000 (SAS) Hard Disk Drive Specification 317 22.2 Fixed Format Sense Data Table 247 shows the format of fixed format of the sense data returned by the drive.

ILI set to one and Valid Bit set to one indicates that the requested logical block length does not match the logical block length of the data on the medium for a Read Long or Write Long command. The Information field contains residue information about the error. ILI set to zero indicates there is no incorrect length condition. 0 No Incorrect Length condition. 1 Incorrect Length Indicated. Valid x 1 ILI Command = Read Long or Write Long Description 0 x No incorrect length condition 1 yes Requested Logical block Length does not match the logical block length of the data on the disk 22.2.4 Sense Key (Bit 3 - 0 of byte 2) The sense key provides generic categories in which error and exception conditions can be reported. Initiators would typically use sense keys for high level error recovery procedures. 0h No Sense There is no sense key information to be reported for the logical unit. 1h Recovered Error The last command completed successfully with some recovery action performed by the drive. More detailed information is available in the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier. 2h Not Ready The logical unit addressed cannot be addressed. More detailed information is available in the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier. 3h Medium Error The command terminated with an unrecoverable error condition caused by a flaw in the media or an error in the recorded data. More detailed information is contained in the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier. 4h Hardware Error The drive detected a unrecoverable hardware error while performing a command or during a diagnostic test. More detailed information is contained in the Additional Sense Code and Additional Sense Code Qualifier. 5h Illegal Request There was an illegal parameter in the command descriptor block or additional parameter supplied as data. If an invalid parameter is found in the CDB, then the command is terminated without altering the medium. If an invalid parameter is found in parameters supplied as data, then the drive might have altered the medium. 6h Unit Attention Indicates that the drive entered in the 'Unit Attention Condition'.
